--01 How is Paris nowadays?

Paris is living her best life ahaha that time of the year, is almost like a watered down version of Paris, everything seems amazing and it’s really hard to not get amazed by the beauty of the city and her energy.

--02 Where is your happy place/sanctuary in Paris and why?

It’s a very unexpected choice maybe ?  in a way. But there’s a dog park in the Marais, a cute little garden, very Parisian, where somehow no one respects the «  dogs on leash » rules. 

Everyday there are always a lot of dogs playing, running around, and having fun. That’s my happy place. We grab coffee and pastries in front of the Swedish Institute ( cultural center ) and go sit on the bench at this park with friends, surrounded by dogs, and that’s very therapeutic.

--03 What do you think is the most interesting creative scene in the city right now?

19M is the most interesting creative scene in the city right now, in my opinion. 19 like the arrondissement in which the building is located, at Porte d'Aubervilliers. I like this area a lot, and especially as I’m from the 20th, and those areas aren’t the ones you think about when you say : Paris. 

la Galerie du 19M is a massive building : a  multidisciplinary space open to the public that highlights Craftsmanship, different creative scenes etc. In an equal way

--04 What are 3 places in Paris (bars, clubs, restaurants, stores...) you would bring a friend visiting you to?

Martin Boire et Manger - my favorite restaurant in Paris. If I ever have a friend in town, I will always go there. But I could eat there everyday as well. 

Delicatessen - you can eat and drink natural wine. It’s very nice and cute, 

Broken Arm /: DreamingMan coffee shop : Broken arm is one of my favorite shops in town, and DreamingMan has a little coffee shop on the main floor next to the bookshop, and provides great coffee and snacks.

--05 What is something you believe Paris is currently missing?

I think Paris would be the best place in the world if you could actually swim there like in Copenhagen, or Stockholm. Then Paris would be unmatched.
