And when you reach the top of the tower you might experience a kind if disorientation of not knowing which way is up. Oh, and you'll also get your pockets picked by some french asshole, so beware.

haha! sorry to hear that but it's on brand.

since visiting Italy, whenever i'm in a European touristy area, i lock my backpack and keep my wallet/passport in a satchel like thing under my clothes. Not that all of Europe is bad, but i find myself in touristy areas and pickpockets are more prevalent than they are here at home.

True story. I luckily had my valuables zipped up inside my jacket (visited Paris in a February) but I still felt someone slide their hand into my back pocket ;)

The Europeans have class. It takes skill to be a pickpocket meanwhile the Americans just shove a gun in your face and mug you
