A famous French author by the name of Francois de la Rochefoucauld once said, “The only thing constant is change.” With Fall already here and winter fast approaching, the city of Paris takes on a new life in the cooler months and becomes the perfect occasion to visit and pick Paris apartments for rental. The summer tourists return home and the locals settle back in for business as usual. The days are a little bit shorter and the streets a little more peaceful as autumn leaves blanket the ground. For a glimpse into the real Parisian life, November is the perfect time of year to visit Paris, with two events not to miss; American Friends of the Mussée d’Orsay Private Paris Weekend and the World’s Largest Photography Fair.
The American Friends of the Mussée d’Orsay is a great organization dedicated to raising awareness and funds for the Mussée d’Orsay. October 24th- October 27th they are hosting a Private Paris Weekend with “Private Visits to Paris Homes, Collections, Gardens, and National Treasures.”
- Thursday, October 24th: Early visitors will be given a private tour of the home of Louis Vuitton in Asniers followed by a luncheon.
- Friday, October 25th: Welcome cocktail of the home of the U.S. ambassador at the Hôtel de Talleyrand.
- Saturday, October 26th: You will tour various museums and private homes where some of the most coveted art collections in the world reside. Locations range from Coco Chanel’s last apartment and living space and the private rooftop garden and museum of Hermes. The night ends with a black tie gala in the Belle Epoque Ballroom of the Mussée d’Orsay.
