It's such a cliche but honestly, Paris is always a good idea. To start off my spring break this past week I headed to Paris for the weekend! I have been to Paris a few times before and I have to say this was by far one of the better experiences I have had there! I started off my weekend in Paris on Friday afternoon around 6pm when I arrived to my Airbnb. I went and left my luggage there and then headed off to a concert with my friends. My favorite French artist, Frero Delavega, were playing at the Accorhotel arena that night and I was so excited to be able to see them live for the first time! The concert lasted for about an hour and a half, after the opening act went on and they were amazing! I have been listening to their music now for 2 years and I know most of the lyrics to the songs in their two albums! Being in a concert that was filled with only French people was pretty incredible. It was a different experience than the concerts I've gone to in the States. After the concert, my friends and I headed back to the Airbnb and we hit the hay. The next morning we went to the Louvre and spent most of the morning there. This was my first time inside the Louvre and I have to say I really enjoyed the Ancient Greek exhibit they had. Next, I went to grab lunch in a small hole in the wall restaurant close to Notre Dame where you can get a panini, crêpe, and a soda for €5. Then I headed off to Montemart and climb what felt like a million stairs to reach Sacre-Cœur. When we reached the top, we had an amazing view of Paris. That day in particular was also interesting because, we were able to see a photo shoot of a beautiful bride and her groom in front of the church! We also saw a man who did some amazing tricks with a soccer ball. He climbed up a lamp post and from there he managed to bounce the ball up and down with his feet. My friends and I were impressed!! As the day continued, we went to the Luxembourg Gardens in Paris. This was my first time there and I have to say it is a beautiful place to spend a day! My friend and I sat there for a bit and enjoyed the beautiful day! That weekend in Paris was very relaxing and fun. I was able to enjoy Paris a bit more than the first time I was there. When the weekend was over, my friends and I head off to Italy to start the best spring break…!
