In Paris, definitely no parking. In Paris, I don't even recommend renting a car. Just, there's the subway and it's really efficient, you know. Just, yeah, don't, try not to drive in Paris if you can. I mean, in the suburbs, you could probably drive more. I mean, outside of Paris, you know, like smaller cities, you know, you can find, like, parking and things like that. It's pretty good. And their cars are actually really small cars, actually, you know, European cities like that, they usually drive really small cars, so it's easier to park too. But in Paris, no, you can't, it's, no, you can't find a parking spot without paying, like, $20 or, I mean, 20 euros or something like that.

Many of the towns and roads, even in the big towns, have cobblestone streets. You'll find yourself with your big huge suitcases that do have wheels but that don't go anywhere because of the cobblestones and because of all the stairs and you're going in the metros there's so many stairs so these wheels really do nothing for you. So my advice is to bring a big old backpacking backpack and a duffel bag that you can carry really easily and be content with that. Forget the wheels, forget the suitcases, bring something that you can pack around through the metros and on the cobblestones.
