1. One word: food
Of course, Parisian food will be the first on our list. As stated by this Erasmus student, developing a relationship with the Parisian cuisine is a standard that will be really hard to break. Who can resist croissants, baguettes, macaroons and everything in between?! Definitely not us.
2. Charming history and magical art
Paris was founded in 3rd century BC and managed to create plenty of history and some of the most important artists over the years. You haven’t seen history until you’ve seen Paris – they kind of go hand in hand.
3. Stunning views
The city has some of the most amazing spots where you can enjoy its skyline views. Or if you’d prefer something even more magical, just stroll through the city at night and watch as The Eiffel Tower turns on its lights. You might even be lucky to have an apartment with a balcony where you can enjoy the overview of one of the arrondissements. The options are endless!
4. Chic. As simple as that.
Paris defined the word chic. It’s stylish, elegant and sophisticated, but at the same time very minimalistic and full of colors. It has character and a rare personality you will have trouble finding elsewhere.
5. The Eiffel Tower
A true cliche or just an iconic building that everyone just goes head over heels for. We love The Eiffel Tower as much as the next guy. Spend the day watching the people around the tower – we’ll sure you’ll find proposals, street performers and just general happiness everywhere – a good enough reason to fall in love with Paris!
6. The French
On a final note, it’s the people that shape the city. We’re talking about the French as well as the language – just listening to Parisians speak will melt your heart and want to learn French. And we all know Parisians have interesting personalities that are well-worth exploring.
Brb, buying a ticket to Paris.
