About Paris
Paris lives up to the hype if you skip the Eiffel Tower line and eat where locals eat. Le Marais has the best falafel you'll ever have, the 11th arrondissement has wine bars that don't care if your French is terrible, and Montmartre is still magic at sunrise before the tour groups arrive.
