Has anyone been to Paris? I’ll be there from the 15th til the 26th for work and would love suggestions for things that cannot/should not be missed. I’ve already got plans to hit the Louvre, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Eiffel Tower. Has anyone been there and could steer me in the right direction? Thanks!

The lourve was boring as hell… The mona lisa is a super hyped postage stamp.
as for being there in the winter… ugh… idk sounds like a shitty time. I was there in July and we walked everywhere. Arc is pretty cool though… at the top looking out looks awesome.
I wish I got to check out the new arc though 😕

I make do with the time I have after completing my work for the day. Plus there’s 2 days of weekend time in there. Chances are I won’t get to see Paris again for a long time, so I’m taking advantage of this great opportunity.
