Paris (Part II)


Who isn't in love with Paris, really? This was my second trip to the capital (my first visit being in April of last year) and each time has been a total dream. I'd always wanted to visit since reading Orwell's Down and Out in Paris and London, aged 15, which I know is quite ironic as the book is based on the cities plight of homelessness..  

This time around, I made the trip with a friend to see Thirty Seconds to Mars at Le ZĂ©nith (near Porte de Pantin station) as i'd missed their UK tour and as can get some pretty reasonable deals travelling London - Paris if you book in advance, I jumped at the chance. By a total fluke, the date we picked to attend also happened to be a one off celebration of the one year anniversary of 'Up In The Air'. The theme was 'NIGHT OF THE WHITE SHADOW • COLOUR WAR' (I missed the memo and arrived in every colour BUT white, obviously) and it was pretty incredible. I'm still trying to wash red and blue powder from my hair. THANKS, LETO. 

Keeping with the theme of things, I was also recently asked to write a review on Dallas Buyers Club, which stars Jared Leto, for Arts London News. Read it here.
