The Paris Underground / Transport System


Paris is definitely a beatiful city but it is also a city which means its very dirty and dodgy in some parts more than others. One thing I really noticed was how gross the underground train system was - I will not complain about the London underground from this day fourth! The map is much clearer in London for starters and even though there are germs everywhere from the millions of people that use it day in and out (I want to hand-sanitize now just thinking about it!) on a whole its very clean compared to Paris - and safer! People open the doors before the train has fully stopped!! Its a good system and seemed to be more realiable than London but still I wasn't the hugest fan. The coolest thing about it was they had double decker trains!! Underground! Who would have thought... 
Everyone knows how crazy European drivers can be so Im always quite anxious when I have to get a cab or in a car... I was so anxious with the driving at one point I just closed my eyes and hoped for the best!!! There are like huge roundabouts with no markings and cars just pile up and try get round the other and it just ends up being a huge mess! I really enjoy walking so if its within an hour walking distance and I have time I will definitely walk!
