My Massive Paris Bucketlist

As Audrey Hepburn once said, Paris is always a good idea. No matter how many times I visit the French capital, I always come home dreaming of its warm, cream stone buildings with their ornate iron balconies, the city’s impressive sights and of course, the delicious food. I always manage to find something new to see, perhaps a neighbourhood, street or cute café, and I always come home with more added to my massive Paris bucketlist.

I thought it was about time to sit down and get the list that has been growing in my head onto (digital) paper. Maybe it can help you plan an upcoming trip to the city, or maybe it will inspire you to book one up, either way here it is..
