For international travel and hair maintenance tips and links, see full post at http://moknowshair.com/europeantour To see more beautiful pictures of the sights by an awesome photographer, see C.J.'s Instagram at http://instagram.com/cj_urbane I recently went on a ten day European tour beginning in London, then to Paris, Lucerne, Venice, Florence and Rome. It was an amazing experience! I was fortunate to see and tour so many historical monuments and scratch off several "bucket list" items, such as seeing a live show at the famous Moulin Rouge! While on this trip, I decided to wear my natural hair. I left the U.S. with a wash-n-go, which lasted about four days. There was lots of humidity in the air, and we spent a lot of time outside each day, so I ended up washing my hair twice on this trip. I took travel sizes of the following products: Trader Joe's Nourish Spa Shampoo and Conditioner Mixed Chicks Leave-In Conditioner Creme of Nature Perfect 7 Leave-In Elasta QP Olive Oil and Mango Butter Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel Kera Care Edge Tamer Chi Deep Brilliance Reflect Agadir Argan Oil Treatment I quickly discovered the water in Europe is very hard compared to what we have in the U.S. As a result, my hair felt very tacky, heavy, dry and seemed to have build-up (likely from the lime in the water there). I am used to my hair feeling light, soft, full of body and natural hydrated. Thankfully, I was able to manage with overnight braid outs and morning diffusing on wash days, with nightly re-braiding. And by the end of the trip, protective styles saved me! See post on my blog for international travel tips!!

HERE: http://twitter.com/adamrucker http://twitter.com/ruckermore http://facebook.com/ruckitup I had the opportunity to travel across the sea with my friend Franze to the wonderful land of Paris, France! First things first: we had to find our way from the airport to Disneyland Paris, which as simple as it sounds, wasn't entirely easy. Language barrier and all... BUT we still made it there and had a magnificent time! This is only the beginning though! So stay tuned for more historical Parisian sites, food, and fun! Comment: Say something in French!

Batille Market in Paris, France. Here we are in Paris. It is the most romantic city of the world. Everyday life can be sometimes be hard to find admidst the tourists and grand monuments. If you look for it you may find it in the most simple things. In this case we are talking about the Basille Market. Here in Bastille square known as Place de La Bastille, this is the largest market in Paris, with almost too many choices. "It is a very diverse market. You can find every level of society. I think that it is a market that ought to be listed in foreign guidebooks." Fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, cheese, it is all happening here. "Here you have some St. Nectaire (cheese). Its color is gray, more or less, that because of its time aging. It spent some time in a cellar, in the earth, flavored with a bit of hazelnut." It is the roots, it does not smell bad, tastes like your [unclear]. It is big salt with [unclear] She is typical of the Antilles Cuisine. Papiton is a foie gra. Seventy per cent foie gra, thirty per cent petite gourdine. Just a little petite gourdine with foie gra in [unclear]. We can try an old wine. 1979. 1962. That is special. It is almost my year. "There is a certain village in Burgundy, it is called Trobene, a well known name in the United States. [Unclear] is proper there so [Unclear]. So you are drinking the real [unclear] with Cardone from Cardone. I am Sophie De Ratuld, showing you Paris. A bientot.

http://www.woltersworld.com Visiting France is a must for any traveler, whether hiking up the Eiffel Tower or sitting on the beach in Nice the country is beyond beautiful. We could eat the food, drink the wine and enjoy the atmosphere all on our own, but to truly enjoy France you really should know a few words of French before you go. Here we give you the ten most important words for tourists to know in French (and beginning French students). Filmed in Strasbourg, France Copyright Mark Wolters & Wolters World 2012

Take a tour of Paris, France (Bastille Day Ideas) - part of the World's Greatest Attractions series by GeoBeats. Hey, this is your travel host, Naomi. I'd like to give you a tour of the top 10 attractions of Paris. Number ten, Hotel de Ville. This grand neo-Renaissance style landmark built centuries ago is home of the city administration. Number nine, Place de la Concorde. The largest square in Paris, it has a 3000 year old Egyptian obelisk and is particularly beautiful at night. Number eight, the Pompidou Center. A colorfully creative modern building housing a vast collection of modern art. Number seven, Arc de Triomphe. Built in the early 1800s by Napoleon, the Arc is a symbol of national pride. At the top, you'll find fantastic views of Paris. Number six is the Seine Boat Cruise. It's affordable, convenient, and in a short period of time you can see many major landmarks of the city. Number five, Versailles Palace. A royal château just outside of Paris has grand architecture, 700 rooms and beautiful gardens. Number four, Notre Dame. One of the most recognized symbols in the world and over 750 years old, Notre Dame has incredibly detailed Gothic architecture. Number three, Sacré-Coeur. This Byzantine style stunning light church, despised by intellectuals when it was built, is a must see for Paris visitors. Number two, the Louvre Museum. Perhaps the world's most famous museum, it hosts thousands of pieces of great art, including Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lise. And number one is the Eiffel Tower. Amongst the most recognizable and visited monuments in the world, everyone must experience the Eiffel Tower in their lifetime. Keep watching our travel series. Ciao.

Not sure how you will ride the Paris Metro? Guenol shows the way. Website www.ratp.fr When getting around Paris, the Metro is going to be your best option. It is cheap, it is punctual and you are always going to be a five or ten minutes walk away from any Metro Station. You can identify the Metro station with this red Metro sign. I am at the Ramuteau Center and now I am going to show you, how to use the Metro. There are large maps all over in the station. However, for your convenience, you may want to pick up a small map, they are available at the storage stuff facility. It is important for you to know which direction to take the train in. You may want to think of the River sign as a sort of dividing line between the right bank and the left bank. In Paris you have both the Metro line, and the RER line or SEF as they pronounce in France. Every Metro line has a color and a number, for example where Rambuteu which is line number eleven, we are here and it is the brown line. You can distinguish the RER lines from the Metro lines because they have letters, for example you have the B line, the D line and the E line. If you have to change lines then you want to look for these blank oval shapes, such as this one at Bastille or this one here at Hotel de Ville. So, right now we are at Rambuteau, which is on the the line eleven and we are going to go to the Hotel de Ville to just one stop. Since Trains run in many directions, you can tell the direction of the train based on the lines last stopped. I can buy my ticket from the cashier, I will buy a single ticket which costs one Euro for D and with this one ticket, I can go to any stop on any Metro line as long as I do not exit a station. You can also buy what is called a carnet, which is a book of ten tickets. There are also several passes available. Occasionally, there maybe long lines at the cashier's, so you can use the machine here. Use this roller here and then they will give you different options with how to have tickets for Paris and to buy your ticket, set validez. I have my ticket now and I just need to follow the sign. So, I am going to put my ticket in here, retrieve it at the other end and you are going to follow me. In this summer it can get hot in the Metro and also very crowded, so just keep an eye on your belongings, just as you would in any other city. On every platform you are also going to find a map, where you could again confirm the itinerary. The Paris Metro is known for its punctuality and it is not going to be very long before you are going to have to wait for your next train. Notice, as the train stops the doors are not going to open automatically. Instead, you are going to have to grab one of thse metal handles here and open the door, here you go. Again in the train itself, you will see a little map with all the stops on the specific line. When you arrive at your station look at the Sortie sign, which means exit. When you have this kind of exit, you are not going to need your metro ticket. However, sometimes there are exits where you do need your ticket in, in order to exit the station. There are multiple exits in most Metro stations, usually they are named after the road on which you are going to exit. Here we go, our exit, Hotel de Ville. Do not forget that you can also use your Metro ticket on the Erca Erca and also the bus. You should also know that the Metro run to 12:30, excect on Sundays when it runs to 2:00 AM. I am Guenola showing you France.

His blog is not only incredibly delicious with THE best, simple recipes, but it is also incredibly insightful, witty and sometimes very political. Just this week he wrote about why your clothes smell like fried food after eating at certain places.
