Farah\u2019s favourite sightseeing in Paris:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Louvre<\/a>, Basilique du Sacr\u00e9 Coeur<\/a> and the Arc de Triomphe<\/a> \u2013 to name a few \u2013 and strolling around Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es. Since I am very passionate about fashion, exploring fabrics, cuts and design is a must. It keeps me updated with the latest trends that appear on the runway. Although shopping is easier these days online, it can never beat the actual feeling of trying it on first to see how it looks before purchasing an item. Paris has a lot of boutiques and the choice is endless.\u201d<\/p>\n

Best tips for solo travellers:<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. Choose accommodations based on location<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cFor solo travellers, it is best to pick a hotel that is close to pharmacies, supermarkets and basic needs such as restaurants\/caf\u00e9s. A location popular with tourists is a bonus since it means there are always activities around and it is never dull. Also, the closer to the metro station, the better it will be if you plan to reach the hotel late in the evening.\u201d<\/p>\n
