How I did it: It was a work trip to Velizy which is about 40 minutes away from Paris, so I had the chance to go to the city often. I was so amazed of everything I was seeing that I had to call my girlfriend and got her to fly with me to spend my last weekend there together.

Lessons & tips:

• The young people is more likely to speak english.
• Be slightly rude with the waiters, they will treat you like shit if you don't.
• Spend some minutes trying to figure out the subway layout. It will help you a lot and will take you anywhere in the city very quickly. 
• Walk a lot, you can find wonders in the city that do not appear on any tourist guides just by taking a walk around.
