How to be Parisian

How to be Parisian

Hello everyone!

This week it's Caroline de Maigret, the author of How to Be Parisian Wherever You Are, the model, the music producer - and the ultimate Parisienne, if you ask me.

I saw her walking down the street in central Paris and I stopped her to ask if she would like to be on my show. She said "Yes, let's do it right now".

So we recorded the episode on my phone in a cafe in the ninth arrondissement. That will explain the background noise, the waiter interrupting, the coffee machine somewhere in the distance... in other words, the ambient sounds of Paris.

Hopefully you'll feel like you're sitting right there with us.

Caroline talks about being a Parisian woman, the freedom of Paris, and how pleasure is a key element of life in the French capital.
