In my conversations with you, my Parisian friends, we talked in May about the upcoming Olympics. Your city of Paris would be hosting, and there was some mixed excitement like butterflies before a big performance.

Back home, watching them from the comfort of our living room sofa, I can tell you we thoroughly enjoyed them. It was fun seeing Paris on the grand stage and settling in for the events.

Now in October, in my conversation with you, I can see how proud you are of your city. It’s so nice to see. It’s a quiet pride and it connects us which is pretty much what the games are about. Today, beautiful Paris is even more so with the polished bronze on the statues and the pressure, now off, knowing how well the performance went.

Action Line: The Olympics will be a tailwind for tourism to Paris. Book your trip and make your reservations at my favored places. I’m looking forward to hearing about your trip. Email me about it at ejsmith@yoursurvivalguy.com.
