new is not necessarily better
Ahhhh Paris… beautiful, exhausting, and absolutely worth it, especially during Art Basel, when the city pretends not to notice a sudden spike in statement bracelets, architectural necklaces, and oversized silhouettes worn with great intellectual seriousness. Our first rule: avoid cars if you can, and when you can’t, take taxis. Yes, the drivers may be grumpy (consider it performance art), but they cut through the couloirs de bus and save serious time. Walk whenever possible (Paris rewards flâneurs), taxi when necessary, and métro only off-peak hours, unless you enjoy conceptual choreography involving backpacks and expressive sighs.
