Je ne parle pas français tres bien.
July 29 in France ⋅ ⛅ 27 °C
Bin erstmal 1 1/4 Stunden durch Paris vom Bahnhof zum Hostel gelaufen und beschlossen hier niemals Auto zu fahren. Leute sind sehr nett und ich hatte bisher immer jemanden zum quatschen, aber es ist ja auch erst die zweite Nacht. Morgen gehe ich vielleicht bei einer Rundführung mit, mal schauen, aufjeden Fall gehe ich morgen erstmal essen besorgen.

Das Hostel ist okay, aber das in Innsbruck war trotzdem um Welten besser.Read more

Day14
A day in Paris
August 18 in France ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C
Paris in 30 hours!!! Alex is another swimmer from dal that has also been travelling so we spent the day together! We walked to the Eiffel tower, the arch, the louver (it is MASSIVE - Ben said you could spend a week there and I believe it), the Montmartre, and walked down 44th Ave! Also had a DELISH pizza. YUM. I also continued to meet more people at the hostel. This hostel was super social starting the night with free wine and cheese and happy hour :) I met some Aussie's, Germans, Canadians?!, and a guy from Ukraine. It seems everyone is going from Paris to Amsterdam so maybe we'll meet up again along the way :)) some side things, we saw a full band just playing in the train station - very cool! and this guy FULLY scamming travellers near the Eiffel tower with finding a ball under the correct cup. Costs 100 euros to play 😱 We watched and honestly he's smart in that he changes the cups when people look down in their wallet to grab their money. And guess what...it worked! Silly people 🙄 anyways overall great day seeing some of the world's most popular destination!

Next stop: Brussels to spend a night with my dad's cousin Lieke!🤗🥰Read more

Day1
Arrival in Paris
February 20, 2020 in France ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C
Landed in Paris after a fairly uneventful flight, (take off was fun though 🤗).
Navigation through the airport was easy, (evidence of crash landing confirmed seagull and pigeon airways are not recommended- look carefully at the photo of an airport window).
Gentle meander to the hotel with 2nd breakfast an route a quick settle in before heading to the Eiffel Tower.
Emily has perused all the gifts in detail. We enjoyed a lovely French tea/ coffee and cake and then up up and away!!!Read more

6 Stunden Westwärts
April 9, 2017 in France ⋅ 🌙 19 °C
Nun ja, wie soll ich anfangen. Nach einer angenehmen Nacht sind wir relativ früh aufgestanden um den Rest noch zu packen. Elly ihr Koffer ist "Friedhof der Kuscheltiere" ähnlich 😂.

Unser Italo-Amerikaner fährt uns gut nach Frankreich 😎. Eigentlich ist es super einfach... Denn die A6 führt uns von unserer Haustür bis ans Ziel. Da Sonntag ist, sind die Strassen super leer. Elly ahnt immer noch nichts, denn die Schilder die uns kurz nach Kaiserslautern unser Ziel schon verraten würden interessieren Sie nicht, sie malt lieber 🤔

Verkehr war dann erst kurz vor Paris. Und da dann aber reichlich. Da wird nicht so auf Regeln geachtet. Rechts überholen, zwischendurch... egal... Da wo Grad Platz ist geht man durch.
Mit ein paar Schweißperlen auf der Stirn kommen wir in der Tiefgarage von unserem Hotel an. Enges Ding. Irgendwie bekomme ich das Auto geparkt 😅

Unser Zimmer hat direkten Blick auf den Canal de la Villette. An diesem Kanal schlendern wir dann auch noch bisschen. Hier spielen die "Pariser" Boule und feiern ihre eigene Party. Auch spannend... Gibt sehr viel zu gucken 🎉🎊

Wir essen dann was typisch Französisches, Kebab... hihi.

Jetzt genießen wir unser Hotelzimmer noch etwas und Elly feiert es, dass es Deutsches TV gibt 😂

Morgen werden wir dann die Stadt komplett unsicher machen. Also seid gespannt.

Au revoir et bonne soireRead more

Hey, alors, quelques semaines plutard dans les maritimes... Depuis que j'ai quitter l'Islande je n'ai plus le même temps le soir pour updater quoique ce soit malgré que je j'aurais pu me forcer plus que ça. Voici quelques photos de plus mais j'en ai plein dans mon cellulaire que je n'arrive pas à transférer sur mon laptop et je crois que c'est tout simplement parce que c'Est un chromebook et c'est assez récent et tout alors il n'y a pas de mise à jour d'effectuée pour que ça marche avec mon cell... Anyway, je m'amuse beaucoup à Paris et c'est le plus important ! Bordeaux dans 2 jours probablement alors on se voit là! :DRead more

Found this charming flat on AirBnB in the 10th arrondissement. Neighborhood is full and vibrant with all kinds of people. I've decided that I'm either incredible at picking neighbourhoods to stay in or there is no bad neighbourhood in Paris. 1 catch; 5 flights of stairs.Read more

Paris
October 15, 2016 in France ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Paris es gigante y no, uno la puede caminar y no se da cuenta, lo que genera este efecto es que la verdad es que la ciudad es tan, tan linda que lo absorbe a uno, es algo indescriptible hasta que estas acá, los monumentos y museos la hacen grandiosa, uno siempre tiene algo que hacer, algo a donde ir, es una ciudad llena de turistas pero también es la ciudad más difícil que me ha tocado, hablar con alguien acá en inglés es imposible y menos en español, los franceses están orgullosos de su lengua pero no se dan cuenta de que reciben cerca de ocho millones de visitantes al año y no pueden esperar que todos hablemos francés, por favor nos terminan siendo personas agresivas y groseras, además le podemos sumar que son los más cochinos hasta ahora, el aroma de sus ropas y su hedor por no bañarse son algo que definitivamente no quiero repetir, por lo demás lo he disfrutado mucho.Read more

We were thirsty and came across the Panama Brewing Company on the end of the Bassin de la Villette.

After talking Habs and Canucks, and spitting on Bettman, SEE enjoyed some of Paris's finest leau and I enjoyed a flight including :
Sequana
Oeil de biche
Experimental
French Devil
Bete Noire

Day1
Paris
December 5, 2014 in France ⋅ ⛅ 4 °C
Since this is my first post on find penguins I have to mention that i have been to Mexico for half a year as an exchange student. Especially a lot of people from France have been there as well. Also one of my house mates - Amélie. So almost one year after we saw each other for the last time a few friends of our Mexican travel and housing group decided to have a little revival in Paris. It was simply awesome - especially if you are not a tourist but a guest! Obviously we did some touristic stuff as well, but still with a local person it is different in so many ways to explore a city than by a travel guide (doesn't matter if it's just a book or a person).

Part of our Group: Julien who is also living in Paris and Mica who joined the weekend trip from London.

We had an awesome start on Friday with a French dinner. Self-made Crepe and self-bought drinks gave us an insight of how the French are preparing dinner while having an apero preparing it. Before, when we were buying all the ingredients we passed a cultural center where people were dancing randomly to music in front of an artificial skull. This was one of the many advantages you have as a guest instead of a tourist ;-) We spent the night at Amélies place because everybody was a little bit tired from travelling to Paris.Read more
