London or Paris?

Photobucket
I found out yesterday that I got into yet another study abroad program, that I applied to just to see if I would get in. This program is in PARIS!!  I would live with a Parisian family from late September to December.  Dream come true, right?  


I would happily do both programs, as I would be in London from August to mid September, but I don't have a lot of money.  Oh how I wish I were a trust-fund kid.  


I'm curious, which city should I live in?  I'm leaning towards Paris, but I'd love to know your thoughts.

I'd definitely go with Paris! Really, either would be beyond amazing, but my scale is tipping towards Paris. Can't wait to hear what you decide!!

Holly said...

I would hands down pick Paris! (I've never actually been to either city...) But Paris sounds more romantic :)

Oh Paris, most definitely! It's my dream to one day live in my favorite city in the whole world. Having been to both London and Paris, I just feel more comfortable, more at home in Paris and plus I love the Eiffel Tower and the fact that it's THE fashion capital of the world and they have the most exquisite bread and pattiseries and speak a foreign language... convinced you yet? Doubt you need much convincing though :)

I'm partial to Paris because I've been there and loved it. But I bet London would be so amazing as well! And whichever you choose, hopefully you could fit in a little trip to the other. Take the Chunnel!

Ginta said...

Def. Paris! You'd learn French! And London is only a train ride away. ;)

i'd be more than happy to go to either place... but i guess i'd choose paris too :)

Katie said...

Paris, Paris, Paris! I went on short trips to Paris twice and loved every single second about every single thing. Paris is so full of fashion, history, friendly folks, just all kinds of beauty. :)

As someone else has already said, it'll be easy enough to visit either city once you're in Europe. But I'd go for Paris as well - it seems like London is more accessible in the future, mostly because of language. Congrats on getting accepted!

Congrats! Whichever one you chose will be a wonderful adventure. Make sure you do it. Life is too short.

Cliche as it is... Paris. I have been to both cities but all I can think about is how great it would be to live in PARIS!

what an awesome dilemma! definitely pick paris!

Brandi {not your average ordinary} said...

Oh my. I want to tell you to do both. I know what it's like to not have much money, but these opportunities don't come up often. Could you maybe work while you're abroad?

Christine said...

Paris. Just do it.

Kayla Poole said...

I agree with Brandi. If you can make it work, do both. I feel like it would be the experience of a lifetime.

Olivia said...
