    Paris trip from 22/1 to 2/2.

    I am going to Paris during 22/1 to 2/2 to visit some friends. However, they have to work during day time and will you be there as well? Maybe we can have fun together like chill out, coffee and hang around the city.

    Sure but to be fair there's nothing to do in Paris during the day.

    Oh dear.

    It's probably the greatest centre of art and culture in the world (never mind food and wine) and all you can think of is shopping?

    Why is a local like you on an expat forum anyway?

    I was just there a week ago, and it's FREEZING. Whoever said there's nothing to do during the day is absolutely wrong. There's so much to do, you could visit any one of Paris' historic churches, or visit the numerous museums the city has to offer. Go and drink coffee at a small cafe and have a sandwich (I gotta say though, I prefer Italian coffee). You could also go on a shopping spree, as the sales season just got started.

    Like I said, there's soooo much to do.
