As Meredith is getting ready for her aupair gig in a town outside Paris this summer, she was asking me some travel tips and advice on how to get by on little cash in the expensive city of lights.

Hard to believe that it’s almost 7 years since we last visited France. The French were preparing for the new millenium, I was still able to get 6 francs for a dollar, my camera was a small konica film point and shoot, and the backpack was small and didn’t have all the state of the art details like the one I have now. We probably had more cash back then since we qualified for those youth fares and “student” discounts. Oh those youth train pass fares, how I miss thou.
