Audrey Hepburn said it best, “Paris is always a good idea.” No matter the season, the City of Love and Light does not disappoint. It is filled with food, culture, art, iconic structures and a general sense of enjoying life that makes any trip there a treat for the senses.
Enjoying the art of being a Flâneur
Derived from the French word for strolling, this term describes a person who wanders around aimlessly with the sole purpose of relaxing and enjoying their surroundings. Not only do the French not feel guilty about taking time to roam outside without an agenda, they celebrate it. Whether it be walking through the different neighborhoods, known as arrondissements, or simply walking to a nearby fountain to lounge in the iconic Parisian green chairs, you can’t deny the French know how to enjoy life.
