Tip for my non-:flabbynsick: brehs if you hit the Eiffel: walk the stairs to the 2nd level. It’ll save time in line to get tix, time waiting on the lift, and save a bit of money. I think you gotta take the lift to the top, unless the stairs were just closed.

Then walk back down the stairs instead of waiting on the lift.

Just took a day train trip, but I wish I took some more time to fully see the landmarks. I will say it’s one dirty, stinky, DUMB crowded city, but the historical landmarks were :ohlawd: also one day imma def bring my wife to eat and sip champagne up there in the Eiffel :wow:

Also I GOTTA take like a 2 wk trip around mainland Europe one day soon. Imma shoot for next yr since I been traveling a lot

Honestly, I didn't find Paris that dirty or too crowded. Then again, I've lived and maneuvered in NYC and Lagos. NYC is also crowded and Lagos is quite grimy in some parts.

Going to Vegas for Memorial Weekend

PLEASE can someone give me a heads up on anything I need to be heads up on. Feel like I've asked this question here a million times as if no one's ever been to Vegas.

Good bye Coli(2014-2020)
:mjlol: not true at all

i:eat:every day I was there..with more options than I knew what to do with.

you just save the following phrases in your notepad then paste in tinder like
"nao falo porteguese....fala ingles?" i don't speak portugese...do you speak english?:takedat:
"O que você está procurando?" what are you looking for?:mjlit:

"Eu não moro aqui ... então eu só estou olhando para me divertir" I don't live here...so I'm just looking to have fun :mjgrin:


the power of those few phrases.....:wow:

:whoo::whoo::whoo::whoo:

I only found it crowded in certain sections. Like at one point the bus was stuck IN an intersection for like 10 min. And there’s a lot of scooters ducking in and out of traffic so they clearly know there’s heavy traffic. I didn’t move around heavy, and only for a day, but from what I gathered locally that’s a way of life. It was honestly worse than what I witnessed in LA. But only right in the city Like by the Louvre and shyt like that.

As far as dirty, Yea I’m sure it’s cleaner than NYC, and I haven’t been there or Lagos to compare, but I got an African breh (French colonized country; spent a LOT of time in france coming up) who told me a while ago Paris was overrated and dirty.

None of this is deterring me from coming back one day, and depending on who’s with me hopefully I won’t have to deal with the Tower so I’ll have time to really see and get into everything else.

Yea Paris was nice but I wasn't too crazy about it to be honest. I lowkey preferred Amsterdam. I still see myself passing through Paris in the future, but honestly, I'm really starting to love African cities as a whole (Accra, Jo'Burg, Nairobi, Lagos etc).

So much more energy to them. Still got love for NYC and London though.

Vegas has been done so many times so there's not too much to be said. Just stay on the strip, stay hydrated and just know you're gonna encounter a lot of drunks at night.

Clubs are gonna be mad expensive to get into, even if you come with girls, so there's that as well. But it's gonna be a lot of fun. Vegas has that "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas mantra" so people are definitely with the shyts.

Lowkey Vegas starting to be that MDW/LDW move. Miami seems too be attracting a certain crowd nowadays :mjpls:
