Summary

A mysterious email from Will asked for the ideal itinerary for a 12-hour layover in Paris.

Hosts Oliver and Lina went head-to-head suggesting their own versions of the perfect one-day plan.

But who is Will? Could he really be a Wall Street hound with expensive taste? Or a med student who prefers cheap lunches and riding bikes?

We have no idea - but we tried to help!
