Long time no blog blah blah,.. i am sad about it honestly but life can get a bit all consuming sometimes lol! Anyway, me and my bestie have been planning an interrail trip for a while and so i thought i’d write some blog posts about it ^.^! We are going for 8 days and going to 3 countries: France, Belgium and The Netherlands!
First stop was the eurostar from London to Paris which was honestly so fast.. we played card games the whole time mainly hehe.

| pointing at nothing xD |
Arriving in Paris with our huge backpacks we headed to our first food stop of the trip- Cloud Cakes, which is an all vegan bakery. We navigated the metro to get there and sort of made some sense of the ticket system?

| croissant!!!! |
We arrived at our accommodation which was like 40 mins away from the centre and were greeted by some cute cats ^.^ the other one was really shy but this guy came to say hi!
After a relax we went to our booking at the Paris Catacombs even if we were late because a metro line was closed! The catacombs are made up of the limestone quarry’s that are all underneath Paris and exist because when the graveyards in the city were overpopulated they needed a special place to display the bones. No pics of the actual bones but trust me it is really eerie, but also quite existential.

| creepy tunnel |
Post catacombs we needed a pick me up so we headed to a Vietnamese place where i got the most scrumptious tofu curry.. i am gonna be dreaming about it for years i think!

| evan got a curry pho.. also delish! |
We were pretty close to the Eiffel Tower and Hotel des Invalides so we walked through the picturesque streets as the sun set. The Eiffel Tower was all lit up by the time we arrived which was so cool. It was just amazing to see it up close!

| sparkly…. |
I was for sure so tired by this point so we headed back on the trusty metro to the accommodation and I collapsed lol.
Have you been to Paris? What was your favourite thing to do/see? So far it’s been really fun! Sort of like london but honestly a lot nicer in some regards haha.
Stay tuned for more updates ^.^
wow that looks like so much fun!! thats so cool that u guys saw the catacombs! lets see, my favourite part of paris was...leaving! ok joking... sadly we didnt see much becuz we were busy with the immigration office most of our trip but we had fun hanging out outside the Army Musuem because it has these trenches and huge cannons to look at.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can go to paris again!! it’s like way better than just the immigration office lol. would 1000% recommend the catacombs!
