I went on STA Travel and than called a travel agent. They gave me a very low price, $414 for dec 26 2006 to jan 15 2007, so I took it right away, spur of the moment! I am going to get my passport on monday...I had tried the other day but they did not like the condition of my passport so my mom is sending me a copy and I am bringing in the orginal too. so hopefully that gets done tomorrow...if not I still have plenty of time. I told my gf of my plans..I shall arrive in paris and from there, I have plenty of time to plan what happens with pick up or arrival in her town. so what advice do you guys have to a newbie traveller? well, at least a newbie as far as foreign countries (other than canada). how should I prepare? what should I start doing? I AM SO EXCITED!
Will you be staying near to Paris after you arrive there or travelling elsewhere in France? It'll be great I'm sure, just explore is all the advice I can give and have fun !!!
