Montmartre is supposed to be one of the prettiest neighborhoods in Paris, but also FLOODED with tourists. So while I was originally planning on waiting until springtime to see it, I realized the cold might not be such a bad thing if it keeps the crowds down! So yesterday after my french class, I met Laura, another au pair (from England) to wander around. That's Laura in the gray ("grey" since she's from the UK) coat in front of Sacre Coeur. Montmartre was absolutely gorgeous, with cobblestone streets and stairs and cute shops( DEFINITELY tourist-central though!). Not to mention the VIEW! Because Montmartre is so high above the rest of Paris, you can see everything!

One of our weekly clinic groups has begun to follow your blog, which has generated some questions about your experiences in Paris thus far. The clients here at Acadia greatly enjoy your stories and photographs, and hope that you can answer some of their inquiries:
Questions for Erin:
How long have you been in Paris? How long will you stay in Paris? What is it like being an Au pair in Paris? Which do you like better, the US or France? What is the exchange rate from dollar to euro? How many people are in the city of Paris? Where are you going to visit next? Have you eaten in the restaurant(s) in the Eiffel tower? If so, is it expensive? What does a falafel taste like?
