My spring break was split between two cities: Barcelona and Paris. We were in Barcelona for 4 days, and it was wonderful. The city had beautiful architecture, great food, and not to mention the fact that it's the best smelling city I've been in. But the highlight of spring break, and possibly of the semester so far, was the five days spent in Paris.
It wasn't because of the nightlife, the touristy shit, or the hot girls. In fact, most nights we ended up going home after dinner. There were, however, plenty of fine Parisian women to be found and the sightseeing was incredible. But that's besides the point. I fell in love with the city within hours of my arrival on Tuesday afternoon.
The trip was the perfect blend of time spent with friends and alone. I was fortunate enough to be traveling with some of my best friends, fellow Old School Movie bloggers Max and Fatima, as well as Danny, who made it out here from New York for the week. We hit up all the typical Paris spots, such as the Eiffel Tower and Louvre. Both were nothing short of amazing in their own rights. The view from atop the tower, although it was cloudy, was still amazing. I'm truly privileged to be able to, at 20 years old, be able to up there and overlook France in all its beauty. The Louvre was also amazing. The history and significance of the pieces of art in that building surpassed that of any other museum I've been to.
