Lest folks reading this get the impression tourists are regularly preyed upon by thieves on the street and Metro in Paris: they are not.

Really? After having a bag of really nice gear stolen in broad daylight in Rome last September, we came home and did some research and Paris seems to be right alongside Rome and other major European cities in which tourists are particularly targeted for theft.

I would strongly recommend that anyone touring major cities of the world to at least peruse Youtube's massive collection of videos by ordinary people showing where, how and who tourists are targeted.

one should be aware of his/her camera bags and other possessions at all time when you go out, regardless of where you go to....especially wallet and passport!
