Happy New Year everyone!!

| Music Academy at night - absolutely gorgeous. |
When thinking about going back home to Maine, I thought about when to come back, and what better place to spend New Year's Eve than in Paris? I did my research and learned that places like the Champs-Élysées is absolutely crazy, à la Times Square in New York, so my friend Lindsay, her two cousins, and I, decided to rent a small apartment, go to a nice dinner, and go dancing. Mission accomplished. This was honestly one of the best New Year's I've ever had and while Paris was extremely busy and flooded with people during the day and night, it was so beautiful to walk around the city at this time with all of the lights still up. It was also a bit nostalgic because it was almost exactly two years ago that Lindsay and I were sleep deprived and culture shocked as we participated in orientation for study abroad in Paris, essentially sleep-sight-seeing. Our apt. was perfect, located in the 5th which was a perfect location and we had the best luck with finding our way around and doing the perfect amount of walking, eating, resting, and shopping.
