Stop 3: Paris France

I went to Paris France in the middle of October to visit my HIGH SCHOOL friend, Sondes! We had some really good times at Enloe...we were in physics, IB math, and Bio together. She moved to Paris about 4.5 years ago for her bachelor's degree and is now completing her masters there. Since we had been talking about meeting up in paris for the LONGEST time, I figured it would be perfect to visit her now since I'm SOOO close to her city! I took the train from Holland (~4 hours) and she took me around for the weekend. Paris is SO beautiful and SO much fun! Seriously I don't think I would ever get tired of it! :) It reminds me of New York City but without the high stress and hectic lifestyle that SO many new yorkans deal with. Everything in Paris is SOOOO lovely!!! WOW- it would be like a dream to live there...amongst all the rich history and so forth... Anyways, here are some pictures from my exciting weekend. You see my friend Sondes and I dancing the night away... (yeah after 2 nights and 3 days of walking for over 12 hours each day we couldn't go dancing anymore )

Below are some of the beautiful pictures I took in Paris:
