Gay Travel Paris
Ah, Gay Paree! C’est jolie! C’est genial! How…French!
Freedom fries aside, Paris is a gay’s best friend. It has all of the elements one needs for a fabulous vacation: romance, history, culture, and a laissez-faire population that lives for life. Boys sipping espressos at cafes, girls walking their canine companions down the wide avenue of les Champs-Elysees, couples frolicking carelessly around l’Arc de Triomphe. Nothing is finer than a night in Paris!
Of course, with Paris recently declared the most expensive city in which to live, it will cost you. Things are definitely not cheap here, although with a little bit of savvy you can follow the locals for the best spots that don’t break the bank – like grabbing a baguette, cheese and a cheap bottle of wine and “faire un picnic” in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower!
To maximize your croissant-nibbling, coffee-sipping, people-watching café time, visit Paris in June or September. You will avoid the peak European travel season of July/August, and students will still be in school. Winter days are cold but rarely drop below freezing, and the spring and autumn are generally seasonable, but can be quite unpredictable!
This is France, after all…
