As you probably know I’ve been back for about a week from my highly anticipated 24 day Eurotrip! So far I’ve gone through about half the photos on the trip, deleting duplicates, blurry images, etc. I will have to delete as I go along later on this month.
How was it? Summing it up in one word: Great! It’s probably what I imagined it to be – and maybe even a bit more. Ate escargot, pizza, gelato, conversed with locals, jumped in front of the Eiffel Tower, and a whole load of other things.
I’m not much of a writer myself, but hopefully you can follow the small captions that I have above the photos.
Critique and comments very much welcome! I’d be glad to answer any questions about the trip! :-D

Hi,
I work for Picsean Media (www.picsean.com), a company that provides content and technology solutions to media and publishing companies globally.
One of our clients, a leading publishing company is keen to do a feature on Chicago Airport and I see from Flickr that you have an excellent collection that would suit the requirement.
Also if you have images from any other airport do let me know.
This could be a good opportunity for you to feature your work in their magazine and also become a part of Picsean so that we could consider featuring your work in magazines globally on a regular basis.
Every full page feature of your images in any magazines will earn you $100. Let me know if this sounds interesting to you and I will be happy to advise you on the next steps.
You can email me at shiwani@picsean.com
