so im finally doing my first overseas trip just a short one to go to the ejc, im arriving in paris on the 20th of july at 6.20 am
and i was wondering if anyone else will be in paris around this time who is keen to see the sites and go on mad adventuresOur deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourself, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous and talented? Who are you NOT to be?

oooh I'd love to. Don't know if I'll be able to afford it but I'll try to plan a visit in there somewhere. I heard EJC was the best festival going so would love to go along.
mad adventures are my favourite Mr Ben!
but they have to be unplanned or it takes the fun away!

Dude im very tempted to just go to france out of pure randomness and meet you and go for a mad 1! This is the sort of things i most like to do.
2 years ago i decided while drunk at a party i was gonna go to Greece. Next day i was on a plan to Athens. Ended up Island hoping for 2 months having the most insain time of my life. When i ran out of money, 8 hrs later i was back in bristol. Unreal
Make sure you Bump this thread before you go. You never know.
Cheers to the thought

If I'm going to the EJC, I may be able on for going over a little earlier. Unfortunetly, I won't know until way closer the time. I'll be in touch if I am.

Warchild i totally agree, Greece is awesome, while i was there i went to this fabulous island called Hydra, which had NO CARS, only donkeys, it was beutiful, we were there for this mad celibration of a greek victory against the turks, it involved an insane amount of fire works and setting a massive ship on fire, fantastic, apoligies to Ben-ja-men for not replying to his post at all>>>much luv

Erm, why confine yourself to Paris though? I know your flying into there but you could use the time better by having a look round Europe.
I'm currently looking at what parties are round the continant at that time...

Well, the thing about travelling is not what you can see. Its about going to a place and soaking up the atmosphere.
Some good places in Paris are like Montmartre area, this is where theres loadsa people busking and the Sorbonne or Latin Quartre, where the students hang out. You HAVE to walk down the champs elesée (soz I can't spell this mornin) and see the Arc de triomphe (and the crazy roundabout which surrounds it.)
I'll have to talk to my travelling dudes and make sure we'll be in Paris for the 20th. But spinning fire under the eiffel tower would rock!

U can get a £50 return from heathrow 2 paris on a coach! So arrive a little early and busk for a while!
I have practically no money either. Thats the whole point in backpacking.
