I have just returned home from two weeks in the reputed romance capitals of the world, Paris and Venice. In Paris we rented an apartment in a residential, non-tourist, area of Marais and tried to live the life of the normal Parisian. In Venice we rented an apartment near St. Marks, but that still could have been rented to a native Venician. If you have ever thought of chucking your life and moving to where the romance is, I have some thoughts.
