So, in case you haven't figured it out by now, I enjoy researching off-beat topics.
The OP got me to thinking, and you'll be amazed at what turned up.
You may want to think of an alternative to Paris. (Sorry, Frenchy)
Paris may be hazardous to her health. Here's what I found:
Paris Syndrome: A Psychological Condition that Hits Japanese Hardest
"According to psychologist Hervé Benhamou, “Fragile travelers can lose their bearings. When the idea they have of the country meets the reality of what they discover, it can provoke a crisis.” Take these exaggerated expectations and add to them the stark contrast between the two cultures’ sense of politeness, social graces and communication in general, and you just may have yourself a case of “Paris Syndrome.” This is the term that was dubbed in 1986 by Professor Hiroaki Ota for a form of Gallic culture shock so severe that it may require hospitalization and at times even immediate repatriation to Japan.
The Japanese Embassy in Paris now has a 24-hour hotline for Japanese tourists suffering from the syndrome, whose symptoms can range from depression and anxiety to acute delusional states, dizziness, sweating, hallucinations and “feelings of persecution.”
