I walked into our riad and immediately understood why people fall in love with this city. The carved wood, the colors everywhere, mint tea waiting for us when we arrived. And that was all before I even stepped out into the medina.

The full Day 1 story is coming in the reel. For now, tell me: which slide is most you, riad calm or souk chaos? 👇

Thrifted through the Marais, stood where Emily stood, ate the best crepe of the whole trip, and said goodbye the only right way: hot chocolate at Carette.

I came to Paris with a list. I’m leaving with a favorite city.
