Paris in the Snow

It’s been snowing for three days in a row now which has resulted in quite a bit of snow! Most of the buses are cancelled and I’ve seen several cars having problems with getting out of their parking spaces so far. Let’s just say that the city wasn’t that prepared… But it hasn’t all been negative! It seems like the Parisians are super excited about the newly fallen snow that has covered up Paris in all white. I’ve walked pass a bunch of snowball fights, and yes, both between six year olds and 26 year olds. Many Parisians also seem to turn in to “tourists” for a few short seconds, taking out their cell phone cameras to document the winter wonderland that Paris has become.

It seems like Parisians aren’t that used to a lot of snow, which is understandable since it doesn’t snow as much here as I’m used to. As I’ve said before I hate everything that has to do with the cold and winter but for some reason it feels so much more fun with snow in Paris than back in Stockholm. Plus, you can’t deny how beautiful the city looks covered in all the white…

I have been having so much fun in the snow here in Paris as I never get snow in Australia where I’m from so I’m like a kid in the snow.
Your photos are absolutely sublime!

Hope I get to meet you one of these days

The city of white buildings covered in pure white snow! Stunning, and I am jealous beyond belief! I want so badly to see Paris covered in snow at least once in my lifetime. Enjoy the 3 days of snow and continue to share, thank you.

Loving your photographs Carin. The city is so so beautiful in white. I regretted staying home the whole of Sunday when it was all perfect but then again I’ve got a cold and gotta study. Came out today but snow came down together with the rain hoping for more snowy days ^__________^

  Thank you so much, you’re so sweet! Well, I actually would have wished that I walked around a little bit more to take more photos as well but is was just sooooo cold. And after the internship I was just exhausted!
