We arrived in Paris during a heatwave and have been sweating it out since we left the airport. My name is Kynzie Johnson and I will be writing this blog to document my experiences throughout this month in Paris.
I already feel like I’ve been through several stages on the rollercoaster of culture shock. The first has been the excitement of finally making it to Paris after so much anticipation and planning for the trip.
Then there was total exhaustion coupled with annoyance that there is no air conditioning (even though it was over a hundred degrees!). Our first night at dinner, we barely spoke as we waited for our food, trying not to fall asleep or pass out from heat exhaustion.
The heat finally subsided last night as we rounded off our first full day in Paris. The day started with me being annoyed at the lack of AC (still) and missing my family a bit, included a great chocolate mousse from Café du Rendez-Vous and a trip to the Louvre, as well as several failed missions to located and buy a fan, and ended with a dinner of fruit and cheese from Franprix on the balcony. Looking forward to the exciting things we could see today!
