Submit your questions on Parisian culture, food, news, & more
Each week I receive oodles of messages across multiple platforms (so many platforms!) with questions pertaining to living or traveling in Paris. I might be asked for timely information, like the two museum exhibitions someone shouldn’t miss if they’re short on time, or it could be evergreen details like my preferred day trips from Paris or my go-to boutiques for unique gifts. There are also plenty of inquiries about daily life: evolving government policies, forthcoming cultural events, the context of any strikes and demonstrations, and even women-run businesses or initiatives to support. Of course, food is another big topic to land in my inbox: where to eat for a birthday, a solo meal, an anniversary, or with a group (These are often very complicated because they lack the kinds of specific details one needs to make a proper recommendation!).
Bref, I figured that it might be helpful to centralize some of these queries (which will also help me sort through them!) into one place for paid subscribers who have specific questions they’d like answered (just don’t expect me to plan your trip in the comment section :)). What’s more, the questions and replies can be viewed by others who may have wondered the same!
