Paris – Day 1!

Me, my flat mate Amy and friend Jess went to Paris on the 8th Jan for a few nights! Got a really good deal on flights and accommodation so thought why not eh?!

Hostel was surprisingly nice despite initial worries because of how cheap it was!

One of the first things we done when we got there was visit Montmartre Cemetery as it was pretty close by our hostel. The crypts / graves were so elaborate it was insane! Really beautiful though.

There was some really cool graffiti in Paris. A lot more interesting than the generic types you get here.

This is a square in Montmartre were many artists gather to paint / sell works ! Looked like there was some interesting stuff, not just the traditional types of paintings that you’d expect.

Some amazing views from the top of the Sacre-Coeur! Was really nice the way you could see different parts of the city being lit up by the rays of sun!
