I just came back from my trip to Paris and Amsterdam. Paris was beautiful, and majestic. We spent Christmas there, but it didn't feel very Christmasy.. less so than Milan. The Eiffel Tower at night was amazing and every hour the light would flash in blue symbolizing the color of the European Union flag. We didn't do much sightsee this time around, instead, we shopped a lot. Amsterdam was also amazingly beautiful with its northern european architectures and rivers/canals all over the city. It was freezing in Amsterdam though, the coldest weather I've ever felt, the weather channel said it was -6 degree celcius. We stayed right in the middle of the red light district, interesting experience for sure. Came back to Torino this morning, it feels nice to be back to a city where I can somewhat understand the language as opposed to France where I don't even know the phrase "I can't speak French". I'm looking forward to new year's eve, some friends from school is organizing a potluck that night, I really hope it'll be fun.
Merry belated Christmas to everyone, and Happy Early New Years!
