Having no prior experience overseas, I was tasked with writing engaging blog articles on each of Paris’s 20 neighborhoods with the right tone to give the impression of a seasoned local’s perspective. In this link you’ll find a collection of some of my favorite neighborhoods in the city and the articles I wrote describing them. I certainly wasn’t a local, but through strolls around the city armed with a camera and an insatiable curiosity, I was able to translate my daily observations and musings into informative, fun-to-read blog articles. I was an outsider on my team as the only American, but I parlayed my Westerner status into more inspiration for my writing, crafting narratives with a keen sense of what American clients (who made up a significant part of VIP’s customer base) were looking for in a Parisian neighborhood and potential locale for their next apartment.
