I have recently been informed that my blogs are highly anticipated and read regularly by certain members of the Degner family, so I think the pressure is on to write more indepth prose...I will do my best!
So my strep-throat is gone, gone gone and I am so happy. Now I have more energy and better spirits to visit this beautiful city. I have now been to the Louvre, the Catacombes, Maison d'air, Sacre Couer, Notre Dame and Champs Elysee. Today was the day I visited Champs Elysee, and never in my life have I seen more wealthy people...it was like their skin was made of gold and silver, and maybe platinum! And they were so posh, so put together. And so this is reason number one why I cannot live in Paris - I am not so posh and I do not love to shop. I do not put myself together so well in the morning; although since high school I am sure my mother would agree I am doing a lot better!
Reason number two that I cannot live in Paris, or anywhere else if France for that matter, is crepes. I ADORE crepes with nutella, and possibly bananas. If I lived in Paris I would want to eat 5 crepes a day, I am sure. And this is a serious health risk.
Reason number three is that men in Paris are very forward and extremely persistent; I just cannot deal with this all day every day. I can only say "non, non, non" so many times a day, and certainly not every day a year.
Reason number four is people like me: tourists stress me out. There are piles of tourists on every corner, every metro, every restaurant, and it is quite exhausting.
So far this is my list of why I cannot live in Paris; none of them do I take so seriously that if the chance came to actually live here I would turn it down! I love this city and if I had a lot of money I would like to spend a long time here.
