Re: Residence hostel for students in Paris

I stayed in the Residence Hostel last year and it is cheap and cheerful and overall very good value for the price. Great for meeting people also and good enough location.,

Re: What to wear in August in Paris?

Open shoes absolutely fine.

It can get a little chilly in the late evenings so do have something warm and good shoes to wear if the evenings are cool.

Re: Champions League, season 2008-2009

Another round of games played and I have to say that Man Utd are looking real strong.

Could it be a Man Utd v Barcelona final. With the form Rooney is on these days, they'll be hard to beat provided he stays fit.

Re: FOR SALE BRAND NEW Apple iPhone 3GS 16GB---$165

I myself have a Apple iPhone 3GS 16GB and I can highly recommend this phone. Compact, strong, good interface and excelent usability.

I used to have Blackberry but I find the iPhone more better and much better applications.

Re: Cuba: USA and EU trying their best

I think the U.S. and Europe are simply waiting now to see what happens as Fidel Castro is old and surely has a limited number of years left in him. It'll be fascinating to see how the dynamics of Cuba change after Fidel Castro.

Re: moulin rouge

I saw Moulin Rouge last year. I knew the general idea but overall I had no idea what to expect in terms of overall.

A great time and highly recommend to all considering it. Worth every penny.

Re: Coffee - advantages and disadvantages

Overall just about anything is okay in moderation I would say and a cup of coffee a day certainly isn't going to harm. Anything in excess is not good so enjoy your cup of cofee!

Re: Rock Climbing in Paris

I have been to Centre Européen d'Escalade a couple of times to climb and I can certainly recommend it. Very godo facilities and well organised. A good place if you are interested in climbing.

Re: Hackers: Good or bad people?

In general I would certainly say bad. I appreciate the sentiment though in that hackers can show us the flaws in certain things and help us to improve them. I would rather have a friendly hacker hack a government website than a hacker who intends to do malicious things for sure.

Re: Different dating culture

I lived in South Korea for a few years as an English teacher and it is comletely different totally for dating in Korea compared to England or France. Very very different. What are your thoughts on dating Koreans?

Re: Renting and Pets

From my experience and apologies that it might not be the answer you are looking for but the 3 landlords here in Paris I have had all did not allow me to buy a cat. My wife loves cats and thus its been a disapointment in this respect, renting.

Re: French restaurants in Paris

The Cafe les Deux Magots, at 6, Place St Germain-des-Pres is an excellent restaurant and one I go to every month with my wife.

There's a good write-up on Best Restaurants in Paris on Paris Culture with some more good ones including Deux Magots.

Re: Champions League, season 2008-2009

It's already shaping up as a very interesting 2009 - 2010 season for the Champions League. Lyon seem strong. PSG no longer so good but mayb in the future.
