  • Party with Stefan, Ep. 6
    2024/11/05

    The one and only Stefan, hailing from The Big Apple, joins me for a short and sweet apéro hour party / podcast session. This is my first *visitor* on Paris is a Party and oh! what a treat it is to have him joining me. We dive deep on fashion (brands brands brands, galore!), Paris styles, and how Paris transformed into an even brighter and more cosmopolitan city than it was when Stefan first visited (at the sweet sweet age of 16).

    Enjoy this one and thank you for tuning in!

  • Party with Colleen, Ep. 5
    2024/10/19
    It's been a long time coming....this particular episode was recorded three times due to various technical difficulties but we finally got there, making it the most special episode yet! Colleen, a Paris Grande Dame, joins me to discuss what first inspired her about France, how she established herself as a lawyer in Paris, and what it is about Paris and French culture that is both charming (food, the countryside, small neighborhoods) and sometimes horrible (no sense of customer service). It's a winding conversation taking place with a little apéro that ends with a conversation around fashion and style. Don't miss that!

  • Party with Amy Ep. 4
    2024/10/19

    Amy is about to leave Paris but won't go without first saying goodbye. Thank god for that!


    In truth, Amy is like many of us: dreaming of living in Paris and trying to figure out how to make it happen. I'm catching Amy right before she leaves to the US in the hopes of finally getting her paperwork approved and returning to start her life in the City of Light. As an American expat whose lived in NYC, LA, and CDMX, we explore what it is about Paris and French culture that inspires Amy. We discuss the visa process, the French attitude, the difficulties and joys of living abroad, and her favorite places to eat/drink/go out.

  • Party with Emily Ep. 3
    2024/07/22

    I have one of the most special guests joining me: My sister, Emily (@eeisenhart) ! We cover a lot of ground in this episode. Don't sleep on it. We examine, without any conclusion, what inspired us to take French in HS and funny moments on a seminal family trips to Paris. Two big points we cover off on in our conversation is Paris's duality between darkness (the Catacombs) and light (this IS the City of Light) and the romance of NYC vs Paris. It's fun. There's a lot of laughs.


    Hot tips / Pro Recs

    Cafe(s): Angelina Paris (226 Rue de Rivoli ) - go for the hot chocolate but know it's a lot.

    Museum(s): Les Catacombes de Paris (1, Avenue du Colonel Henri Rol-Tanguy (place Denfert-Rochereau) 75014 Paris), book in advance

    Area(s) to walk: Cimetière du Père-Lachaise (20eme),

    Come party with Liz (@lizbelike) (@thelocalnose_) ! In the second episode I sit down with Liz, a French-Canadian, who grew up between Paris and the USA.


    A fascinating conversation ensues which begins with a discussion of the differences between French and American culture and what it's like growing up French in America (for some, a dream and for others, a nightmare!). We discuss: botox and beauty care in France, entertaining, French girl fashion essentials (blazers, skirts with stockings, ankle booties but ALWAYS understated) the different types of 'French girls', wine(s), cheeses (a MUST!), restaurants, the 'coconut and peach' theory on French vs American culture and how it manifests in DRAMA, and the Americanization of French dating culture.
