<p>Hey everybody! I'll be taking a class this summer (6 weeks) in Paris, and I'm terrible at packing light, so what are the basics that I'll need (aside from toothbrush, comb, underwear, and the other necessities)?</p>
<p>Figure that it will be hot! Now, I could be totally off base and Paris could have a repeat of last year’s amazingly lovely summer, but… The city itself is always prepared- they truck in sand for along the banks of the Seine and the younger residents of Paris who aren’t lucky enough to get out into the cooler countryside can go down to the river and be instantly
" en vacances"!
Paris is a major city and one where the locals just don’t look like bums, no matter what the weather. Americans can be identified by their white walking sneakers and the Germans by their socks and Birkenstocks (think I’m kidding? Just sit in a caf</p>
<p>Thanks so much!</p>
<p>I’m a girl, and I haven’t had the typical white sneakers for years, so I think I’m safe :)</p>
