I recently arrived back home to Los angeles from a dream vacation to Paris with my wife. I was so satisfied when the trip ended and I looked back at all that we had done- We did everything on our list and more. As promised, here are just some of our many pictures below. Paris is considered to be a trip of a lifetime for most and it did not disappoint. Bucket list…..Check!
Random travel tips:
*Exchange your money before you go to save a bit on the exchange rate and save time waiting in line at the French airport.
*Learn a few common phrases in French. ‘hello, goodbye, thank you, how much’ etc.
*Get the international data plan your phone carrier offers, it’s worth it. My plan was just $10 a day to use data in France.
*Don’t forget to bring outlet converters (specifically for France) so that you can charge your electronics, including your phone.
*Indulge!!!! Counting calories can be done when you get back home! There is also plenty of walking to offset the overeating you will do! We walked 10-15 miles a day!

Chocolate sculptures were unreal.
Versailles rowboats and garden were literally straight out of a fairy tail.
We really became familiar with the metro.
The eiffel tower was amazing, and picnicking under it was priceless. We found an amazing place by the name of Cafe Zia that prepared a picnic to go that included wine and a blanket for under 60 euros. It was one of my favorite experiences on our trip.
Me- right before Nina surprised me with a beautiful band to add to my wedding stack. It was beyond romantic. I will never forget that moment.
A cafe nestled in the french countryside in a town called Giverny.
