Should I live in Paris, Rome or Florence?

The decision has been made that I will be living in Europe for a year, but I cannot decide whether I want to live in Paris, Rome or Florence. My gut says Rome, but my family's slight aversion to Rome has made me consider Florence. I have stayed away from the idea of Paris because I was born there, so I don't consider it new, but it is still a very viable option. So far my brother, my grandmother, and my grandfather all prefer Florence to Rome while two of my cousins prefer Rome to Florence. And of course my parents are pushing for Paris since they lived there for a few years. This tale of three cities is becoming too close to call. Here is my current inner debate that I am having with myself at the moment as to where I would like to spend a year.
