You obviously have never been to Vancouver, or are using yourself as the benchmark for character .

Paris would never be on my personal top list.

It's a good thing these lists aren't determined by you.
Perhaps you would have Bogata or Bolivia on your list?

How wrong you are.  I spent a year in Vancouver one weekend.

I doubt that, dear:  he's probably bright enough to know that Bolivia is a country, not a city.

Paris is just a tired cliche. People think it has to be on top lists just for tradition's sake.
Vancouver is quite pretty and quite pleasant and the food is good. But it is seriously lacking in enough high brow culture. I suppose if you put Toronto's culture mixed with Vancouver's beauty, you might have a real winner.

High brow culture? Where were you looking for such a thing?

With coke making such a big comeback in Bolivia, does it really matter if he's in La Paz?

I take it all back then, a weekend makes you an expert.

Vancouver???
Sorry Canada cannot get onto any lists. Sorry Canada, I know, we all have to live somewhere. Jetsam mind if I travel with you? May we start in Barcelona?
My A list keeps changing on a weekly basis. But Johannesburg and not Cape-Town would be my South African city of choice.

Paris??? Eeeeek this list has no merit what so ever, save perhaps for cattle class.

Oh dear.  Popular opinion is against you, Surfcrest.

As for Paris, as despicable as the French are as a people, I think it is hard to deny that Paris is the most beautiful city every created by man's hand (not natural beauty, artificial beauty).

homintern is on your IGNORE list.

Paris may be gay but beautiful it is not. It is almost pedestrian. Monuments for monuments sake like a great shallow Berlioz symphony, all frills and no substance. The "old" city built like a playground for an army to ponce and preen in, in a most effeminate way,otherwise it could have all been quite interesting. Paris is officially dead.  
Hmm the most beautiful city I have ever been too must have been Bangkok, when I was a wee child in the eighties, before the Chinese overkill on development took hold. Now there was a magical world.

I want see your naked pics.

Cedric, dear.  I was here in the 70's, 80's, 90's and up to today.  Bangkok has always been a magical, fascinating, friendly and exotic city.  But never has it been "beautiful".

I bet Cedric's manly chest is beautiful. I bet the long languid slopes of his sweet belly are ooohhhhhh............
