Paris Flat Is a Door to The French Magic Reality

By Catherine Arnault

It would be honest and fair to say that Paris is one of the few cities which are always awarded by superlative adjectives - the most beautiful and romantic, the most historical and architectural, the most fashion and gastronomic. We love this city for everything. We adore its narrow and ancient streets, we passion all cozy cafes and restaurants, we admire its gorgeous buildings and centuries-old art. It would seem that nothing could pretend us to be fascinated by Paris magnificence.

But sometimes we are so engrossed in our affairs, and while exploring Paris we follow the most banal stereotypes as our tourists groups, because the lights of a big city are always frightening. As a result all of us have the same memories and expressions while Paris is too big to be the same for everyone.

How could we cope with this problem of tourist Paris? How could we fell the real french atmosphere? There is an answer. We just try to be the real Parisians even if this idea sounds ridiculous. Be beautiful and confident, be free and easy-going, be eloquent and open-mind, be wise. Well, easy to imagine and hard to implement. What if we choose the lightest way which is to live as Parisians in real french house.

It is possible. There are two ways. You may avail of short term Paris rentals that suit tourist and businessmen, loving couple and families with children, in general to those who come to Paris just for few days or weeks. For people who plan to spend some months or even years here, it will be preferable to choose another variant which is long term Paris rentals. It is more comfortable for students and employees.

The pros are obvious. Rental is more comfortable and cheap, it means much private space and the convenience of home, it is the ability of doing whatever you do (in reasonable limit) and feel absolutely free. A flat can be anywhere you want and costs anything you prefer, it can be small and roomy, modest studios and luxurious apartments, all depends on your financial possibilities. Rental flat lets you to explore Paris world yourself, to find something personal here, to find your own individual impressions and save them for years till the next french journey.

If you still think that living in hotel is more suitable, then just try to think about overpriced tourists seasons, disturbance of hotel service workers, strict rules, impolite and irritating neighbors, crowded parking and sometimes doubtful cuisine. When you are staying in a hotel, you will always be a foreigner, while personal flat is an unique chance to be the real Parisian, because you will live surrounded by native things and national realities.

Moreover, rental flat is a great chance to make some French friends. Try to meet your neighbors and ask them a piece of advice of worth visit and interesting places in Paris. Be sure, French people like any attention to their history, culture and art. May be you will know about some locations that wouldn't be told you by your guides.

Being a part of Paris isn't only a dream, it is an opportunity that may come true. These impressions are unique and inimitable. This experience can not be predictable or shared. And this journey will be the one as Paris is.
