    i was there the summer before last, when they had the heat wave that killed off all the weak and elderly.

    it was hot.

    i loved my stay there though. i got to stay right at the base of sacre coeur and spent the evenings on the hill overlooking the city. really nice.

    i also got to stay in the latin quarter in a flat that a schoolteacher was renting out while she went home for the summer. i had a rooftop view of the eiffel tower.

    the best thing about paris, to me, was the outdoor night life. sidewalk cafes, fountains, wherever. just wandering around at night is amazing.

    i would also recommend taking a tour of the sewers, no joke.

    i have some fun anecdotes - being a girl by myself was probably not the best idea, french men are pretty aggressive.
