On my 21st Birthday my brother invited me to a short trip to Paris. On Monday morning we had to be at 7 o’clock in Zurich mainstation, cause we travelled by train. It was my first time in a TGV train, the whole travel took us 4,5 hours. The TGV can only drive in special arias fool speed, but how ever it was cool to travel in such a fast train .

At 11 o’clock we arrived in Paris Est station. First we did was looking for our hotel, but it wasn’t very hard to find it, because my brother and his girlfriend were some years before in a hotel, close to the one we were. Was very cool because because I had a double room for me alone and compared with the hotel I had in Amsterdam, this was just luxus . After a while we left the hotel and went shopping. I didn’t find anything, what a pity, but who cares… In the night we ate sushi in a restaurant, was a great sushi restaurant . After dinner my brother didn’t want to go out anymore, because we had to wake up early on the next day, because we wanted to go to Disneyland.

Disneyland was cool, even if the weather was awful. Cause of the weather we decided to go in the Disney Studios part of the park, cause there’re more stuff inside, so we could keep our self more or less dry. But in the studio Part were also some rollercaster so we didn’t miss anything there. But the highlight was meeting Olivier from France I know him from my language stay in London, where we stayed in the same school .

Was so cool to meet him after so long time again, but he had only short time because he had to work on the next day so we couldn’t stay together for long but was nice to see him again. And he and his best friend could give me some tips for some good location to go out… But they also told me that you can have party all the time in Paris except on Monday and Thursday, just my luck. Cause of that My brother, his girlfriend and I went just to some pubs in the night and after a while we went back to the hotel.

On the last day we had to visit the Eiffel tower . There were so many people, so we didn’t go up to the tower, but was nice to see the Eiffel tower so close, it’s a nice building. The rest of the day we went shopping againg, but without success for me again, so I had to go back to Switzerland without buying anything what a pity.
