I have lived in Paris since my birth. And I can tell you that the reality is far from the postcard.

Yeah. Paris is pretty, it’s a little dirty, it’s expensive, but overall super worth it. It’s also one of the major cities in Europe so travel connections are easy.

I went to Paris in 2019. I enjoyed it. Lots of things to see if your into history. Sitting by the eiffel tower isn't as relaxing as you would think as you are constantly bothered by 'lucky lucky men' I mean every 30 seconds.

YES, and I loved it. It's a magnificent and beautiful city, and everywhere I went, the people were so friendly and polite -- but I speak French very well. (People were surprised I don't have a "Canadian accent", though, like people from Québec.) BTW, If you expect them to speak English to you, when you're in THEIR country, they think YOU are the one who is rude. Paris is one of the cities where it would be wonderful to be RICH -- like Vancouver.....

Yea, June of 09. The food was amazing, architecture was awe inspiring. BUT Not sure if it was just where we went but the whole place smelt like piss even though it seemed like we were in a nicer part of the city. The people were rude giving me and my family the upturned nose untill we mentioned we were from Louisiana, then we got treated nicely. Definitely want to got back to pau France but Paris seemed over rated.

Quite a few times. I lived in Switzerland and Paris is just a 3 hours speed-train ride away.

I got spiked or something when i went when i was 11, i was fine but as soon as i had the hot chocolate and pastry it felt like the room started echoing and people were speaking from far away, and like i was floating... scary experience, Eiffel Tower was cool tho
