My Trip to Paris
Oh, Paris... such a lovely city with a lot of things to do, places to visit and streets to embrace.
Last August I went to Paris (and I never got to make a post out of it sos) with a friend. We went for three days and I came back home with mixed feelings.
I was so excited to be in Paris that we rushed everything so we could see everything in only 2/3 days. It was almost possible. Yes we enjoyed our stay and yes we visited a lot of places ( WALKING- YES IT'S POSSIBLE) but we didn't see everything and I feel like we needed a couple of days more to see everything (like the things that are far from the centre) and enjoy the view more but don't worry I know for a fact that we'll be back.
In this post, I'll show you some pics that I could save ( with the weather a lot of them look bad or my face...) And explain where did I take them and how did I visit Paris in 3 days in a VERY low-cost way. This is more of a photography post so I don't talk much, I hope you don't mind.
DAY 1:
We arrived in Paris at 11am (more or less) and we walked from the bus station (Porte Maillot) to the Airbnb we arranged (lucky enough, we were REALLY close to the Eiffel Tower). Once we arrived at the apartment, we went to a coffee shop right outside. First error of the trip. We just wanted a nice cup of coffee because we were tired and cold, and damn it was expensive (compared to other ones we had, and how much they cost in Barcelona).
Once we started our walking adventure, we first went to see the Eiffel Tower from close (of course)

As you can see in the last pic, it started raining, like the three days that we were there...
That same day we made a route of everything that was kinda close and saw a lot of different things. AND EVERYTHING WALKING. Amazing.

To see all of this, we basically followed the river and kept walking. Thanks to Google Maps we were able to see everything before it was too dark (remember the bad weather). Such a lifesaver. We also visited/saw The Tuileries and Carrousel Gardens (Very beautiful as well), L'arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, The Fontaine Saint Michel, Le Grand Palais and The Victor Hugo font (quite disappointing tbh).
After all that walking we decided it was time to start walking home (the longest walk!) we stopped at some supermarkets and souvenir shops to buy things to eat and for our families. Once we arrived at our apartment we were so tired we just talked and had dinner.
DAY 2:

| The Cimetiere |
The second day we went to Montmartre and everything that was in that zone of the city. First, though, we went to Champs-Élysées and saw the pretty AF Arc Du Triomphe. We took longer to see everything because it was raining a lot and we had to stop but at the end of the day we actually saw everything we wanted: Le Moulin Rouge, Le mur des je t'aime, The Cimetiere of Montmartre and The Sacre Coeur (and a very cute garden featuring a stray cat) with some shops and caffés on our way back to the apartment. After we had dinner and chilled a bit, we decided to go to the Eiffel Tower at night, to see it's beautifulness with lights and everything and we fell in love with it. SO BEAUTIFUL.

PD: excuse my awful hair :(
DAY 3:
Our third and last day were pretty chilled but stressful at the same time. When we woke up we decided to go to the Trocadero and then for a cup of coffee before we had to leave to the bus station. But once again, obviously, it started pouring! We were in the middle of the Trocadero when the rain started so we had to stay ina little crepe shop with a lot of people until it stopped a little bit that we went to a crepe shop and eat there and stay for a little bit. We then decided to go home, get changed and chill until it was time to leave. We stayed all afternoon in the airport.

And this is the end of my trip to Paris with my best friend, Carlota. Sorry for the small amount of text and my bad explaining. We went in the start of August so... It's been quite a while but I couldn't not post about my Paris trip! Hope you enjoyed the pics.
