I was super excited when I found out about this trip. He told me a little early because I was planning to go to my cousin’s graduation in Georgia that week and he didn’t want me to double book. I’m semi happy he did because that gave me about two weeks to find a few pieces to add to my wardrobe for the trip. I wanted to play on stereotypical French fashion -but in a playful way. Lots of stripes. Lots of chic. Lots of black. And, of course, a beret lol.
Of course we made a visit to the Musee Du Louvre. They have a great collection of Egyptian and Greek art which was awesome, lots of paintings (including the famous Mona Lisa -I was more excited about the Egyptian section), as well as African and Muslim art. I definitely suggest making it one of your stops. You can check out some of my footage from it on my saved instagram stories.
One of my fave places we went (I enjoyed it more than the Champs De Elysees can you imagine lol) was the catacombs. It is the underground resting place of millions of Parisians from the 14th century. It can be viewed as a little creepy since these are real bones, but I love history and have always wanted to visit. I definitely suggest buying line passes for here and the museums if you’d prefer to not wait in long lines.
I was only in Paris for about 5 days and I would love to visit again. Although it was Winter, it was nice to visit at that time because 1) thats my anniversary and 2) the Christmas decor and lights make it even more romantic and pretty.
Here are some of the places I suggest you visit if you’ve never been or even if you have and haven’t checked them out:
-Musee Du Louvre and their gardens
-Notre Dame Cathedral
-Eiffel Tower and their restaurant and gardens. The dinner is more expensive than the lunch but both are good if you’re on a budget.
-Cafe Du Fleur for desserts and coffee
-Le Relais de l’Entrecôte for delicious steak frites
-Champs De Elysses for shopping
-The Siene River. You can stroll along it in the Summer. It’s like their “beach”. But it’s also a good place for a river tour or dinner.
-Roue De Paris which is their ferris wheel. It’s another great place for views.
-Street food! Eat all of the crepes lol. Try escargot and pick up some warm wine to walk around with to stay warm if you go in the Winter.
