✨ Thinking about moving to Paris?
The 19th arrondissement is one of the greenest, most culturally dynamic (and still relatively affordable) areas in the city — but it’s very different street by street.
Have you spent time near Parc des Buttes-Chaumont or La Villette?
Would you consider living in the 19th… or is it not your vibe?
👇 Tell me below:
• Are you team “quiet village streets” or team “canal + culture scene”?
• Which arrondissement should we cover next?
And if you’re planning a scouting trip or relocation, grab your free relocation guide in the description and join the email list for updates on upcoming tours and region deep-dives.
Merci for being here 🤍
Great video, thank you. Lots of very useful information. And maybe I'll never come to lve in Paris because it's too pricy for me, but it is fun to watch and dream
What ISN’T beautiful and charming in Paris and France …?! Sheesh! Thank you. 😊
