Day
two in Paris French was more of an adventure. Breakfast was at 730am they
served us crasaunts, bread, and cereal. Not much different than American
continental style. 10am me and a fellow student took the metro
to a strip mall to get down to business. I got a stronger grasp of the metro
system. My first encounter was an
upscale boutique. I attempted to speak my newly learned French upon entering
and asked if they spoke English and they did. I was able to get a business card
to schedule an appointment with the owner of the company. The second encounter
was a boutique by the name of The Queen. The owner again spoke English and
allowed me to conduct a complete interview. She was very polite and seemed
enthusiastic to inform me of the story behind her successful business. After the interview we made our way back to
the Hostel to meet up for the walking tour of Paris. I met up with a group and
made our way to the tour (late). Luckily the group hadn’t let and we were able
to catch the full tour. The tour gave me the taste of Paris I was quenching
for. I saw everything from the Famous Lauve Museum to the Effle tower. This was
what most of my day consisted of.
