092 | Destination Discovery - Paris Perfection
In this Destination Discovery episode, we're uncovering the real Paris beyond the polished scenes of Emily in Paris and Instagram’s highlights. From Montmartre’s charming streets to the quirks of French dining, I’m sharing my honest solo travel experience in the City of Light. We’ll tackle expectations versus reality—like whether Paris lives up to its romanticized reputation or disappoints in certain ways, a phenomenon known as “Paris Syndrome.” I’ll also dive into practical tips on navigating the city, must-try foods (hello, pastries!), and what to know about the locals’ approach to customer service.
Whether you're dreaming of a Parisian adventure or gearing up to explore the city, this episode gives you a realistic guide to what it's really like to wander Paris as a solo traveler. I’ll also share the magic of Paris's icons, like the Eiffel Tower’s sparkling night show and the beauty of Versailles. You’ll get my candid take on what was worth the hype and what was, well, underwhelming. Plus, there are tips for saving money on your trip and a dose of mindset advice for a memorable solo adventure.
