Bonjour fellow humans that follow our blog this is Nina. The G-4s +The Amazing Grandma = The Paris group. The Paris group is staying on Chicken street or Poulet street, we also have a shop called Nina Afro nearby. It's a place where people braid hair. Again I saw my name in it and the same rotation (freaked out, thought how can this be...) as Pukenina, my other blog. We saw a lady on the metro who had really big hair.

Who would've thought getting things like eggs, juice, and bread could turn into an hour-long plus adventure. Wandering the aisles of supermarkets in other countries has been a great pleasure for m...

Bon jour! We have arrived in our fourth country, France! The Great European Road Trip is about to slow down a bit. And just in time, I think we were all about to die of sightseeing exhaustion (what a way to go though!). I'll give the update on the last week or so, but first what a place we have found ourselves in!
