Experience in Paris, France by Pauline

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

Paris is Paris, wonderful, sensational, surprising but also secret, and hidden. Careful to the tourists’ places where prices are really high but take a walk in the streets and let them guide you, you will discover some things that are not recommended in tourist guides!

What is the student lifestyle like in Paris?

Partying on quais de Seine is being student in Paris; eating in parcs or going out in museum during the week.

How much does it cost to live in Paris?

It is expensive! In the top 5 of the most expensive city of the world; that is why I recommand to live just at the doors of Paris on a RER ligne, less expensive and really fast to go in Paris.

What advice would you give future students heading to Paris?

It is a better option in Paris to live in the suburbs on a metro line; it is less expensive, but yes it will be longer to go to work but you should know that in Paris you always have to spend time in the metro! Don’t spend all your money in tourists things, it is much more enjoyable when it is free!
