Next Stop France

This is part 2 of my trip to Europe : France.


The twinkling lights, the classic architecture, the Parisian style. I fell in love with Paris as soon as I arrived.

From when I walked off the train I knew I was officially in Paris. The French language so smooth and romantic  buzzing in my ears, as the Parisians rush to their assigned train with their berets and pencil skirts on.  The trickling rain drops falling from the grey clouds, giving Paris that romantic feel that I have always tried to picture in my head.

The sites were absolutely gorgeous. I will never forget the first time I saw the Eiffel Tower. It was the night that we arrived and my family and I decided to explore the City of Lights. As we passed cream buildings and the Arc de Triomphe, my family and I were in awe at the fact that we were in Paris. My sister and I were holding my cousin's hand as my parents and aunt followed behind. I suddenly looked to the left and saw the Louvre. The amazing pyramid shaped museum where the Mona Lisa rests day in and out. As we were staring in awe at the Louvre, my sister suddenly shouted, "Look to your right!" And there stood the majestic Eiffel Tower. Words cannot express the sense of wonder I felt the first time I laid eyes on that beauty. As it twinkled right before our eyes, I started to cry and think how blessed I am to see the most famous structure in the world.

My family and I had a blast in France. We visited Paris and the South of France during our trip. The countryside was so relaxing. We had stayed in a villa in a small town, so relaxing. We also traveled to St. Jeannet, where we rested in a hotel on top of a mountain. Through out our trip in the South of France, we rented a car and drove to Nice, Eze, and Monaco. All were spectacular places that I will always remember!

Thank you for reading!

Stay beautiful,
