About

I'm a Parisian, and I've been living in Paris for 35 years now. And my objective with this channel is to help you visiting Paris better. On “Paris Top Tips”, every week, you will find a video that aims to help you in your discovery of Paris. Not a set of sightseeing videos on the beauties of Paris, but a practical video guide on the best way to approach a visit to the city, from all points of view: how to get around on public transport, what are the best neighborhoods to stay , a selection of the best hotels, restaurants, places to visit, etc... This channel will be resolutely interactive, and if you want me to address a specific subject, the comments section of the videos, and also the community tab will allow you to ask me for a video on the subject.
