My heart is in Paris! Imagine my surprise when the first thing I saw was this (picture to the left) when I first climbed the stairs at the metro station.

The beauty in this city was indescribable.

There was also several things that surprised me. For one, the people. I always hear about the rudeness of Parisians. This was absolutely not the case. We met so many kind and wonderful people; it was quite refreshing!

Now take all the beauty, kindness and immense size of the city and add a wide-eyed girl with a camera. I was bound to go a little crazy, and I'm glad I did because I never want to forget this amazing city.

A piece of my heart is still there and hopefully one day I can return to leave a little more! Paris truly is the "city of love!"
