Here are some tips for anyone thinking about traveling there:
- go with people you can laugh with. There is lots to make fun of and it's easier if you don't have to alone. This includes yourself so pack thick skin.
- drinking games include: 1. Every time you see a statue of a person on a horse. *drink* 2. Oxidized statues *drink*
- remember you will most likely have to go down before you can go up.
- it's not hard to find people who speak English. Or when all else fails speak Spanish.
- don't let anyone touch your fingers or wrists
- take a breather on the steps of the arch de triumph and watch people dart out in the street and nearly get clipped by cars.
- just because it plugs in and works in America doesn't mean it will work in Europe. :(
- second breakfast exists in Paris. A big cup of coffee does not.
- if plans don't work out simply say, "oppsie poopsie" and move on. - blaming the people you're with for all the wrong turns works. Taking credit for all the correct turns= duh! And be sure to rub it in everyone's face. Makes for better memories. - do not. I repeat, do not visit Disneyland Paris. It will ruin Disney. Correction, it has ruined Disney.
- get cheap food and focus on desert. That's all France has going for it in the cooking department.
- lastly, all those must see places (i.e. Eiffel Tower, louvre, arch de triumph, etc) are in fact must sees.
I had a great time and can't wait for our next adventure. Even though I travelled with, "the stupidest people ever!!!!" <3
