"There is never any ending to Paris and the memory of each person who has lived in it differs from that of any other. We always returned to it no matter who we were nor how it was changed nor with what difficulties nor with what ease it could be reached. It was worth it and we received a return for whatever we brought to it." Hemingway

Rome v Paris 
Rome: cleaner streets, friendlier people, faster cars, foamier cappuccinos, increased public promiscuity, and so many ancient columns lying about that they dont know what to do with them. Today I bought a chocolate croissant and a cappuccino for €1,50. In Paris, I never buy cappuccinos because the little espressos are always around €2,50 and a typical pain au chocolat costs €1,20.
