All, I have been to Paris many times already and just returned again. Last time was around 4 years ago.
I often heard prejudices about a trip to Paris and just wanted two point out 2 things that surprised me in a positive way :
1) Paris has become quite a clean city ! This has changed for the better... on this trip, we saw at many places people cleaning roads and pavements. Very good !
2) Parisians unfriendly towards tourists ? Could have been through in the past and in my opinion mainly related to the fact that they feel very uncomfortable in English. However, this time, many waiters / shop assistants / hotel employees started to speak automatically in English and were in general very friendly !
From now, I will strongly disagree when I hear such prejudices again !!!
Regards,
Bart
