    I have no sense of direction so I've gotten lost in Paris numerous times...only to discover small out-of-the-way shops, cafes and wonderful people. When I was 19 I ditched college and ran away to Paris with only a change of clothes and $100. I lived there for 3 years and it was a wonderful time. (Granted, it was many years ago when it was less expensive.) I actually had my friends send me their old Levi's and I'd sell them to make money. Paris was magic then and magic now. Your video made me want to book a flight. Thanks.

    I always get excited when that little plane lands and this did not disappoint! Paris is so beautiful. Especially to a 19 year old girl going on her graduation gift. A 6 weeks Tour of Europe Great Britain, oh so many wonderful spots. Hotel on the Place Vendome. Had no idea that a Beatle was being married round the corner. We did as you have said, just now. Walked the out of the way streets, went to France department stores, You have brought it all back, dear girl!

    My husband and I finally made it to Paris a few years ago while visiting our son who lives in London. We took the Chunnel into Paris, and once we were in the cab on our way to the hotel, I was mesmerized by the stately apartments, balconies, etc. "I can't believe we're in Paris!" I said to my husband... a moment I'll never forget. ...and Susanna , what a great hat you got! Tres chic!

    I had the privilege of visiting Paris in July 2018 right after Tuor de France, and during the World Cup and Bastille, it was incredible! I like to wander when I travel, no maps, no destinations, just picking a direction and getting lost. Paris is perfect wandering, and when approached with a smile and a polite "what would you recommend?", shop keepers are friendly and welcoming, especially if you're a repeat customer. I met some wonderful people from across the globe, all of whom consider Paris their home. I can't wait for the opportunity to return!

    Paris is indeed the city where you should just wander around and discover, far away from tourist places. The last time I was there, I spent a lot of time in the 7th arrondissement, though my hotel was on rue Cambon. So many fantastic places to see there. Splendid! Paris, city of elegance, city of joy.

    Love Paris! Paris and Vienna are my two favorites for beautiful architecture. And I try to design the inside of my house based on both cities' cafes too, the marble and wood bars and tables, so elegant. I grew up in a very industrial town and was saturated with steel, therefore I stay away from iron, steel, etc., preferring natural materials, wood floors, furniture, types more like Vanderbilt mansions. The people who made the most money on the industrial revolution actually had the most beautiful non-industrial houses!

    My advice to anyone visiting Paris is to get up early and be out on the streets when the real Paris is alive. Wander through the streets as people head for work and children go to school. Visit the side streets, walk along the river. That is when you will discover not just the charm of the real Paris but also that the Parisians are not the standoffish people of the stereotype, instead you find that they are charming people who respond to a smile and a few words in French. I love to stay in small, central hotels, often surrounded by apartment buildings. I've relaxed at the windows of such hotels, and Parisians in their apartments opposite have called across the narrow street for a chat.
    Paris is the "City of Light" and the "City of Love", but it is also an intimate, charming, and friendly city. Probably, apart from my home, Paris is my favourite place to be.
