This month the articles on our blog will be entirely dedicated to live Paris \u201clike a local<\/strong>\u201d! We asked Elisa to tell us in detail the behind the scenes <\/em>of this wonderful city that she loves, seen through her eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is Paris your favorite city?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is no specific reason. The first time I came here I immediately felt at home. Paris is a free city that expresses<\/strong> joie de vivre<\/strong> <\/em>where no one looks at you, no one judges you on the basis of appearance and where you breathe a lot of culture, in fact it is one of the countries where people read the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paris like a local! Your \u201cParisian\u201d day!<\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It starts with breakfast for example at Bo&mie in Boulevard Saint-Michel<\/strong>, V arrondissement and then I wander around narrow streets such as Rue de Seine, Rue Mazarin, Rue de Buci where there are lots of nice little shops, until I get to Saint-Sulpice and then I make a stop at Le Bon March\u00e9 where I can also have lunch. Instead I can also choose L’Empire in Rue du Bac, if I want to eat the herring. Finally I cross one of the bridges over the Seine and spend the whole afternoon in the Marais district!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not just croissants! Lesser-known desserts and where to eat them!<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One above all the Madeleine<\/strong> which is a symbol in Paris! Known for Proust’s book where the writer, savoring it, recalls childhood. The best can be tasted at Place de la Madeleine at Fochon<\/strong>, one of the most famous Parisian delicatessens. Here you can buy Madeleines of different flavors: classic, caramel, pistachio, hazelnut , strawberry m, vanilla\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also find delicious Madeleines at Monoprix<\/strong>, a chain of supermarkets located in the city, the recommended brand is definitely \u201cBon maman\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Then there is the tarte tatin<\/strong>, a dessert served in traditional bistros and brasseries. Polidore, a brasserie in the Latin quarter, prepares the best. Many scenes from the movie Midnight in Paris<\/strong> were also filmed here. At Gerard Moulot, in Rue de Seine, you can buy the single-portion version, to eat while you are walking. Then there are the great classics: the pain au chocolat, the escargot, the chausson aux pommes\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Art outside museums: where and why it is worth a visit<\/strong>.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Paris there is always a large number of temporary exhibitions. An exhibition that is worth mentioning is the permanent exhibition 59 Rivoli<\/strong>, a cultural center of contemporary art located inside the old Lyon credit bank\u2019s building that collapsed in the 90s. Spread over six floors where 30 artists exhibit in rotation. It is a free exhibition that is always open, where it is possible to interact with the artists and it is also suitable for children. It is the third museum pole of contemporary art most visited in Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
