Experience in Paris, France by Mahaut

What is it like to live in Paris? Would you recommend it? What is the city like?

Of course I recommend it. But if you have the budget.

There are other towns in France very cool for students, where the weather is better and the cost of life lower. It is Bordeaux. I recommend Bordeaux to.

Is it difficult to find accommodation in Paris? Is there any advice you can give?

Download the app "RATP" it gives you all the metro and bus line, and it gives you itenerary to go wherever you want.

Furthermore, it gives you when your bus or metro is arriving (2 minutes, 10 minutes... )

very very usefull app.

What is the food like? What are your favourite dishes?

Go to "Le relais de Venise", in Paris 17. great restaurant where you can eat entrecote and deeeelicious french fries home made! The sauce is secret.

This is very known in Paris but the queue is very long. Price of the lunch/dinner: 23 euros .

What places would you recommend visiting in Paris?

Of course, the touristic thing.

But what I love is discovering a Paris that nobody knows. Go to the Rue Cremieux and the Rue des thermopyles! It is very beautiful and gives to Paris a cute and peaceful athmosphere.

Is it good to eat out in Paris? Can you tell us your favourite spots?

Yeah, really good. there are restaurants for all type of budget. I advise them to download the app "Le fooding 2015" for Paris . This app localize them, and show them on a map all the good restaurants near them (tested and approved). It gives them a short description of the kind of restaurant and the budget it needs. If you don't know where to eat, just ask french students, they always know good restaurants!

Is the nightlife good in Paris? Where is good to go?

Yes, the nightlife is fantastic. Near Avenue des champs Elysées, you can find many clubs . Just beware of the way you come back home, the Champs Elysées are not well frequented. You should grab a taxi or Uber .
