5 reasons to live in Paris

Living in Paris is the dream of many people for various reasons.  Here are five!

 Reason number 1: It’s one of the most beautiful cities in the world

It is not pretentious to say that Paris is one of the most beautiful cities in the world.  Between its multiple emblematic monuments, its innumerable gardens, its museums and even its performance halls, Paris is a city with many facets and assets.

 In addition, many Parisian buildings have incredibly worked facades that give a lot of character to the city and its many neighborhoods.  We obviously think of Haussmannian buildings, as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside.

 Paris is also a city that mixes beautiful pedestrian streets, green spaces and large busy avenues.  There are many cafes, restaurants and other shops.  Without forgetting the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre or the Arc de Triomphe at the end of the Avenue des Champs-Élysées.

 It is an undeniable fact: Paris is truly one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Reason number 2: Paris is perfectly located

 One of its many assets is Paris’ location.  If you feel the need to leave the city for a weekend or more, the countryside and the sea are not far away.  You can, for example, take a break in Normandy.  By car, Paris-Le Havre takes about 2 hours 30 minutes.  You can also choose Brittany (Rennes is, still by car, 3 h 30 from Paris).

 Do you want to treat yourself to a Marseille getaway?  By plane, Paris-Marseille is done in less than 1 hour 30 minutes. Perfect, isn't it?  If you prefer abroad, be aware that London or Barcelona are less than two hours by plane from the City of Lights.

 Reason number 3: There is everything in Paris

 Do you need to move around the capital?  Take the metro, the RER, the Vélib ’, a taxi, your two-wheeler or even your car.  You can also use your bike or your legs!  There is no shortage of means of transport in Paris, a good point.

 Do you want to treat yourself to a shopping break?  Again, there is no shortage of choice.  From small boutiques to large brands, Paris abounds in stores.  Whether you are looking for clothes, shoes, furniture or others, you will find your happiness.

 For a drink on the terrace or a bite to eat with friends, you're also spoiled for choice.  Whether you are an organic follower, on a gluten-free diet, a fan of Indian food or addicted to Italian or Asian specialties, you will not be disappointed by what the capital offers.

 In addition, there are many performance halls and others.

 Reason number 4: There is always something going on in Paris

 Concerts, plays, sporting events of all kinds ... Paris is a lively city where something is always happening.

 Many festivals, both free and paid, are organized each year.  And many previews take place in Paris cinemas.

 In addition, Paris also hosts Fashion Week or its famous annual marathon.

 Finally, multiple exhibitions are offered in Paris and on themes as diverse as they range from Game of Thrones to Dali through Scorcese or David Bowie.

 Many concert halls always offer outings alone, as a couple or with friends.

 In short: you never get bored in Paris.

 Reason number 5: Paris has many large schools and companies

Studying in Paris is the dream of many people and for good reason: there are many famous big schools like the Sorbonne or ParisTech.  The fields of study are varied, offering a wide choice to students.

 Likewise, Paris has many large companies with global influence.  Finding a job there is easier than in other areas of France.  An undeniable argument that explains why so many young graduates choose to go and try their luck in Paris.
