Slow Down!

I have had a few requests for a photo gallery for low speed internet. The previous gallery was a little too intense is what I heard. Sorry. So here it is. Click here. Remember post the number of your favorite photo.

It is Nice

So I never thought I would say this but I miss Greeley. I have had a wonderful time in France but it is nice to sleep in my own bed. It is nice to drive a car. It is nice to eat American food. It is nice to see my friends. It is nice to pay in dollars. It is just nice. Even with all that said Paris was an amazing experience like no other but 5 weeks can get a little tough at times. I will never forget the amazing summer that I have had. If you or anyone you know has a chance to do something like this than seize that opportunity. Don't make excuses and remember you are only young once.
Off to Bed,

PS Sorry this is short I just got home and boy am I tired.

Heading South

So after Paris, I headed on down south in France to Provence where I got to stay with some family friends. This was a big change from the large city of Paris. It was almost like life slowed down a bit and that was nice. We stayed in a small village of about a 1000 people. It had everything you needed: restaurants, supermarket, ATM, and a great church. Here in this small town I finally got to relax from all the hustle and bustle of Paris. After that we took a trip to Nice, France. This town was even father south producing great weather. I had a wonderful time experiencing a change from Paris. Now I will leave you with a short video of my time in Provence. It has a few shots from the local market, around the village and wine country.
Thanks,

Goodbye to Paris

So I left Paris last week but I have not had time to post a final goodbye. So here it goes. I have had the time of my life in Paris. I did not know what to expect when I arrived. I also arrived on bad terms with losing my wallet. Even through these bad times, Paris still delivered. Through the bad times and the good times Paris was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had in my whole life. I would recommend this trip to anyone. I have a little video I put together. It shows all the clips that I acquired while in Paris. You will see some clips of the Metro, Napoleon's Tomb, Notre Dome, and streets around Paris. Hope you enjoy and always leave comments.

Monster Energy, Anyone?

Sorry I have not been able to update my blog. I have been working on a project for school. This has kept me tied down to my room and my group members. My group members and I have been asked to export an American product to an European country. We decided to export Monster Energy Drink. We feel that Europe is growing in the energy drink market. We plan on bringing it to France. France is the fastest growing country in the energy drink market and they also have very few competitors. This is provides a very healthy market for Monster Energy. Well I should get back to working on the project. I also would like to hear if anybody has any ideas for products they think would do well in Europe. Post in the comments.
Keep on Keeping on,

The Magic Shrinking Wallet

So I just bought a new wallet due to the fact that my other one was stolen. I think that I got a broken one. This wallet tends to eat money. It is magical and continues to shrink.

According to CNN.com, Paris is the 13th most expensive city in the world. This reality is hard to face for someone from a small town. When traveling in Paris expect to spend a lot of money; I have just gotten used to it. First off, things cost much more than in the US and they tend to come in a smaller portions. On an average day, you can expect to spend about 8 euros on a breakfast that consists of a small pastry and a drink. Lunch will cost a little more around 10 euros. This is a drink and a grec sandwich (pretty much a gyro). For a nice meal, dinner will run you 25 euros. This includes a drink and a 3 course meal. If you dare, you can go out and have drinks after dinner. Each mixed drink will run you about 10 euros a peice. Beer will range from 4 euro to about 10 euro depending on size. This will come out to about 50 euros for a whole day of going out and about. That is a lot of money but, when you take the exchange rate into account that is a lot more. It is roughly 70 dollars. This a little high because you can eat some of those meals in your room but there are days when that is just not possible. Many people on the trip have complained about prices but it is something you have to deal with.

Runing Low on Money,
WillyD
