Paris is beautiful. The buildings are beautiful and I really enjoy the city itself. It was nice to get out of the small town of Florence and be in a big city. I could definitely see myself living here if I didn’t have such a dislike for the language,
. Maybe it’ll be the next language I could try and learn after Portuguese.
I really was such a little girl when I finally saw the tower. Hehe, I jumped ans skipped around and laughed to myself, thinking “wow, I can’t believe I’m actually here.” I ended up seeing the tower again at night with the girls, and for five minutes it sparkled as if a million cameramen were situated all over the tower and flashing pictures of the city at night. It was the girls’ turn to be giddy this time, while I just stood there and smiled, taking it all in. To top it off, Danielle sang a Paris-themed song while it sparkled.
It’s incredible how the more I see and the more do, my personal “To-Do” List just gets longer. I really disliked the idea of the French and Paris, until I came here and the city stole my breath away. And my childhood dream of seeing Europe is slowly but finally coming true. In a way it makes me more ambitious, not only to see and experience more of the world, but like if I can travel to different countries on my own, there shouldn’t be any challenge I can’t handle, can’t overcome. Traveling, in a way, gives me a lot of confidence in myself for the everyday. And New York won’t be the only city I know, which is really neat. Also, I feel like I want to do more for myself, as in have an incredible career, hopefully something I enjoy that pays well enough to allow me to do this again, because I want to come back here, and see even more of Europe, and see Brazil, and Africa, hehe, and so many other places. I really do hope that many of the trips I take in the future will be with you.

I’m happy to hear that you enjoyed Paris. It’s absolutely my favorite city in the world and once I learn French I would LOVE to try to go for grand school…or entirely move there.
