ZWEI HERZEN - EINE STIMME#33 - Krach unterm Eiffelturm: Unser Paris-Real-Talk
Paris – die Stadt der Liebe. Zumindest sagt man das. Für Bettina war es das erste Mal, für Oliver fast schon Routine. Und trotzdem (oder gerade deshalb?) wurde unser Kurzurlaub als Paar zu einer kleinen emotionalen Achterbahnfahrt.
Wir haben uns bewusst für eine Airbnb-Unterkunft entschieden, um das echte Paris-Gefühl zu erleben – mit all seinen charmanten Ecken und kleinen Alltagsüberraschungen. Und wir haben festgestellt: Paris hat weit mehr zu bieten als nur Eiffelturm und Champs-Élysée.
In dieser Folge nehmen wir euch mit auf unseren Weg durch die Stadt – und durch die Höhen und...2025-05-0346 min

This week in This is not a poem Elliott KB looks into American poet Mary Oliver’s Spring alongside poet and artist Clairette Durand-Gasselin, who has a personal translation of the text.

Thanks to the mysterious Goddess of Fortune (aka Leah Walker from Paris Perfect rentals), Lina and I have landed in a luxury apartment by the Eiffel Tower for two weeks. Leah, who runs the social media for Paris Perfect, joined me for a chat about the 7th district, what it's like without the tourist (France's borders are still closed), and she also talks about how apartment rental companies like hers have had 100 percent cancellations.

A historian might suggest that the city was built for walking – ever since the Pont Neuf rolled out some of Europe’s first pedestrian sidewalks 400 years ago. A resident might say that walking is more practical than the Metro in what is a (relatively) small world city. A flaneur (or flaneuse) – someone who likes to wander aimlessly – probably wouldn't even answer because they're off lost in their thoughts somewhere on the Left Bank. But who bet...2019-03-2533 minThe Earful Tower: ParisGood day trips from ParisThis week’s guest is Annabel Simms, a British woman who has explored the surrounds of Paris perhaps more than anyone!
