I’ve travelled there as a tourist, I’ve lived and worked there as a local, I’ve seen it’s dark sides and not so flattering corners and yet Paris, France still continues to be my favourite city in the world. And there is nothing I like more than sharing this city with others.
When I was living in Paris, family members and friends came to visit me and I was endlessly enthusiastic about showing them the city through my eyes. People sometimes are apprehensive towards Paris/Parisians and it’s only when I open them up to the passion that I have for this city that they seem to say, “Wow, I never looked at it that way before.” Numerous family members ended up ending their trip saying that Paris was now their most favourite city as well, and that I transformed the place for them into a place full of adventure, potential, beauty, and inspiration.
And so, it makes sense that my favourite thing as a Local Guide is to continue to share my passion for Paris and for Parisian secrets. There is nothing I love more than to open up strangers to the potential of this city that I only wish I knew on my first visit. It’s what inspired my Eatery list (https://goo.gl/maps/vXTv88dooUs), it’s what inspires my blog (www.lifeofcloud.net) and my itinerary creating side-gig.
Paris flows through these veins…
