Roland Garros in Paris - Tempo Libero - Paris

by EMMA J.

Paris is very pretty and the people friendly and interesting, it feels really safe and a bit chaotic (traffic-wise) which makes it very enjoyable! We went to Roland Garros in Paris where it rained constantly, there's nowhere to shelter so be sure to buy the ubiquitous Roland Garros full-lenth see-through mac.

St Paul is a lovely area...full of cute shops and wonderful places to eat or for coffee. The guidebook said that Places des Vosges is the prettiest square in Paris but it's just full of families and people playing guitar...it's the streets around that are lovely.
Jump on a train from Gare de Lyon to see Chateau Fontainbleu...it really is worth the effort to escape the city for a day

Try Self Grill on Boulevard Bartignolles...brilliant 1970's cafeteria with lovely well-cooked dishes ready to grab from the heated cabinets. The wine is cheap and the walls are covered in mirror tiles and plastic plants...the staff were so jolly and it's all without the benefit of natural light! Didn't try dessert but the mains were cheap and very yummy. We would DEFINITELY go back.

It was a really simple trip..no dramas or mental events and the people were we encountered were very kind and friendly. One of our hosts didn't speak much English and our French is very simplistic but nonetheless we managed to have lots of excitable conversations at breakfast about politics, war, and economics, all in a great mixture of frenglish.
