Paris Trip
sorry if this is in the wrong category... I wasn't sure where to put it.
Anyway.. this year for christmas I'm planning on going to Paris with my best friend and her family.
what should I expect??
like how much money?
what's the weather like?
I basically need some major help planning my trip.
I've never been out of the country and I don't know what to expect.
I have a passport now, so that's no problem, but I'm so new to everything else!
Thank you soo much !!!

Maybe give some free advice about: Advicenators?
Well, first of all, Paris is quite an expensive city, so I suggest you take at least €300(euros) with you. For food and shopping etc. If you're interested in buying clothes, the best thing I can say is that a t-shirt will cost from €15 to €25 (Depending on store + quality) and a pair of jeans would be €50- €100 (again, store + quality)
The weather in Paris always depends, winter is cold and often rainy though, so bring warm clothes ;)
But for the few weeks before you go on the trip, check the weather forecast there.
Also, be prepared to deal with French surroundings, almost no French people speak English, and if they do they aren't too happy to speak it.
Mixed cultures, some people in France may seem rude to you, but to them it's perfectly normal. It takes a bit to adjust to the hype + style of the city.
Be sure to check out some sights and also watch your personal stuff, there tend to be pickpockets around touristy + crowded areas.
If you want to prepare for the trip, I highly recommend learning some basic vocab(if you don't study French in school :] )
Even if it's basics like asking for direction or ordering a cup of coffee at a restaurant.
If you have more questions, ask. France is a country I visit at least 6 times a year (I live in a neighboring country) :D
I've been to Paris a few times, I can't say it's my favorite place...but it's great to go there.
