I didn't like Paris
or Rome. Both looked worst than what I was told, were terribly expensive and people wasn't nice.

Quite prety. I think all the people who told me it'd be awful were Blackpool lovers, so that explains a bit.

I suppose so..
I'd imagine they could do some work, but that'd be wrong.

I worked in Paris for a few months and had a great time. Parisians can be a bunch of arseholes though.

That's the main reason why I didn't like it
they made my last 2 days there a Hell.
And 6€ for a coffee? Why? Has it got gold on it?

Oh, it's so good to be on expenses
I was like that in Sweeden last year. It was heaven (I wasn't too happy when I came back and realise how much weight I had put on)
