I am probably being way to overly paranoid, but all I hear is about how bad pickpocketing is in Rome and Paris. I really want to be excited about this trip, but reading stories after stories about have bad the pickpocketing has really put me off.
I'll be in Rome from June 13 to 19 and Paris June 19 to 24. I already set up an itinerary. In Rome I will be visiting the Vatican, the forum, coliseum, Trevi Fountain, Pantheonon, Trajen Column, and probably a day trip to Pompeii. In Paris I will be going to the Louvre, musée du quai Branly, Eiffel Tower, Panthéon, and going to see a Star Wars exhibit at the La Cite Du Cinema (I like Star Wars :) )
Look forward to your stories!
