So on the monday that 3rd session KK started I was packing my bags for France, took the plane at 8:05 pm and arrived in Paris there at like nine in the morning. Was really fucking tired. It was also really hot. 35°C+ every day in paris and sometimes reached the 40s. Paris was interesting. I don't really know whether I liked it or not. From an architectural standpoint Paris is amazing but other than that I don't really know what is so special. I visited quite a lot of things; Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, Musée Rodin, Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Invalides and much more. The stores there weren't bad but I didn't really get anything there. I got some good quality boxers and a pair of jeans. There were some streets that were really good for stores, they had like expensive and cheap stuff right beside each other (Champs-Élysée, Rue de la Madelaine, Faubourg St-Honoré). I stayed in Paris for like 5-6 days, then took the TGV to Avignon (Provence). I really enjoyed Provence. We visited a lot of villages and each one had a special "charme" to it. Visited a few roman structures (Pont-du-Gare). We stayed at a really nice place so it would be so different if we stayed a shitty place seeing that the hotel in Paris was crap. There wasn't much shopping to do in Provence other than Avignon and in fact that is where I got my things. I got a pair of pants, sweater and a belt. Then I took the TGV from Avignon to Cannes. Cannes was really great. I stayed in an hotel-apart. that was literally 200 meters from the sea. Cannes was basically a relaxing time since we did it quite hardcore in Paris and Provence. Go to the beach, chill on "la croisette"(where all the rich people stay and shop), and go into shops. Cannes was really amazing for the wealthiness. Just looking at cars, I saw at least 10 Bentleys, 25 S-Klass M-B, and 1 or 2 ferraris a day. The shops on la croisette were amazing, like Cartier, D&G, Hermes, Salvatore Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Armani and other haute-couture companies right beside each other. I didn't get anything in Cannes because my ma didn't want to spend anything on me there since she went all out on my sister and my dad, and i dont want to spend my money. So that pretty much wraps up my report and my stay in France.
tired as fuck,
