The Pairing Party--a convivial exploration of what the big deal is about French Wine + Cheese.
Why is this one of Paris' most popular wine events?
Because this experience is different...
Not a 101 'class,' (we favor conversation over the note-taking + powerpoints) this is an irreverent tasting party w/ other curious culture-seekers...

Want to try the most expensive cheese in France? A cheese that has won the World's Best Cheese award...more than once? Cheese that wows even the French?
In the core of hip +creative Paris--the 'Marais' historic district--what starts with, 'cheers' becomes a dive into curated flight of rare + unusual cheeses, delicious wines--intriguingly tasty, to wild + strong, to a 'safe landing' of pure deliciousness!
And ends with new friends from around the globe...together we explore France...by mouth

Rise of Napoleon Paris Historic Walk

Why did Winston Churchill referred to him as Napoleon the Great? Travel back in time and understand how the man became a general at age 24, how he rose to power and why he crowned himself Emperor at Notre-Dame!
See where Napoleon got the lucky break of his military career; where he married Josephine, the love of his life; where they had dinner; and some of the institutions he created to modernize France. You will get a glimpse of his vision as a Head of State and the imprint he left on Paris’ architecture.

WWTwo Paris Walk with a historian
Paris in the Second World war : the dark side of its most famous monuments.
Discover life under Nazi occupation, the fate(s) of the city's Jewish community and the story of the liberation of Paris, a city divided between the resistance and the collaborationists, on the brink of a civil war. From the poorest areas of the city to the wealthiest and from the hidden to the most famous monuments, you will discover both sides of a city at war.
Our "stroll" will last about 3 hours, with a short metro ride half way-through. The aim of my walk is to make you discover specific areas of Paris in the light of aspects of our city's rich history that are rarely touched upon by guidebooks, with in-depth information (history buffs welcome) but in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere. A conversation, rather than a lecture!

The Louvre is the most visited museum in the world, and it is so big that you could spend 8 months inside to discover the masterpieces that made it so famous: artworks that attest the greatness of many civilizations (like the Egyptian, the Greek and Roman ones) and the importance of European medieval and Renaissance art.
Giotto, Botticelli, Raffaello, Michelangelo, Leonardo and, of course, Ingres, Géricault, Delacroix, David, amongst others from all over Europe. The best way to explore the huge castle that hosted kings, queens, artists and officials since the Middle Ages, in two hours and an half/three hours (better than 8 months anyway) is to be guided.
I’ll lead you inside this beautiful place, showing to you how the taste of people changed, how kings and kingdoms’ relationships influenced the creation of one of the most beautiful collections in the world.
