Paris – Arrival, Champs-Elysées and Arc de Triomphe

Stepping off the train, I felt giddy to finally be in Paris! My expectations were pretty high after years of hearing about how amazing the city was, but the city did not disappoint.

Some photos from my first afternoon:


Because I was traveling alone, I figured that I would spend my evenings in the hotel, but as night fell in Paris, I realized there were plenty of women out by themselves, so I decided to head to the Champs-Elysées and the Arc de Triomphe for sunset. What a way to end my first day in Paris!

Liz, your travel log is fantastic! It looks like it was written and the photos taken by a professional travel editor.

I totally enjoyed visiting your blog and looking forward to updates on your adventure.

I hear that you will be working in the Jakarta office. Congrats.

Take care
