I just spent the weekend in Paris and it was great. But why should you bother getting the train to Paris?
Here's my little run-down:
They have pylons shaped like fox-faces!
Its an exotic mini-break just 2.5 hours away from the office!
They have amazing bread, cheese and wine at affordable prices. Pictured below the chevre coeur, &the other cheeses we snaffled; costing like £10, with an amazing loaf and my bottle of appelationed Cote du Rhone for less than 5€. I know, I was shocked too!
You can wear a beret whenever you please! On the first metro I boarded there was a fellow traveller; red beret, green coat, philosophy book in hand. Oh Paris!
The metro seats smile at you; look!
As much history and culture as you can shake a stick at, and most of it free!
Shakespeare and Co. !!! (more later)
Lovely open skies, provided by wide boulevards and hills.
To follow: 'La vie quotidienne d'une parisienne' and 'Pere Lachaise: On not kissing Oscar Wilde'.
Keep your eyes peeled.
