Bonjour,<\/p>\n
There’s a certain weight to the way\u00a0Paris\u00a0<\/em>sounds when you say it, even audibly, it’s luxurious.<\/p>\n I booked a Friday plane ride to Paris the Wednesday before I went, and I’ve been itching to write about it.<\/p>\n May I present: Paris in the fall<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n My trip to Paris began with me dragging my suitcase down\u00a0Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es in hopes to greet the Eiffel Tower with an insanely wide grin. My stroll across the city, paired with a ham and butter baguette, reminded me that I was walking in a city that was nothing less than a masterpiece. I sat under the eiffel tower drinking the richest hot chocolate I’ve had in my life, feeding pigeons french fries while naming them.<\/p>\n Paris in the fall, what a sight. I stayed in an airbnb that was neighbors to the Picasso Museum (I can’t believe I’m living a real life right now). It was a cozy studio nestled in an amazingly charming neighborhood not too far from Rue de Rivoli (I would recommend the 3rd arrondissement to anyone, although every Paris niche has it’s own charm).<\/p>\n What to do during a weekend in Paris, you ask?<\/p>\n Jardin du Luxembourg is gorgeous all year round, but in the autumn, it’s a haven. I sat in the grass of the garden surrounded by champagne toasts, children floating mini sailboats in the fountain, and a small crepe stand in the middle of a warm hue of fall leaves. While this park is a show stopper no doubt, there are a plethora of Paris parks that reside in the city– find them, frolic in them, drink champagne, write a future pulitzer novel. The park is your oyster.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. \u00a0Free museums<\/p>\n FREE museums. Yeah. The Louvre is free Friday nights for anyone under 26, so you bet your bottom dollar I danced throughout the ancient art and statues (and said hey to the Mona Lisa) on a beautiful Friday night in Paris. There are loopholes to getting into a multitude of museums for free (certain days of the month, certain times, package deals, etc), and if you do your research you’re bound to find something that suits your interests.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3. F-o-o-d<\/p>\n Parisian culture is smoking vogue cigarettes and drinking an aperol spritz at an outdoor cafe, but when you’re in the mood for a bite, here’s some dishes it would be a shame to miss:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Looking for a specific spot to go?<\/p>\n A corner cafe covered in flowers– how can you beat that?\u00a0Caf\u00e9 de Flore is famous for having famous writers and philosophers as it’s regulars. It’s really Paris, really charming, and really overpriced. I would recommend stopping for coffee, not a meal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I stumbled across so many amazing things in Paris, I can’t even count them. Spend your days in the city of love walking around it aimlessly, you’ll venture to a million picturesque places.<\/p>\n Merci pour la lecture!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bonjour, There’s a certain weight to the way\u00a0Paris\u00a0sounds when you say it, even audibly, it’s luxurious.
