Description
Hello! I am writing to tell you something incredible...
I recently met a friend at the foot of the steps of the Sacré-Coeur Basilica . We had intended to discover a small shop specializing in angels. As we left the store we found a pen. When we picked it up, we saw a white dove and decided to follow it. It flew in the direction of the Sacré-Coeur basilica, like a carrier pigeon transmitting a message from Gaul...
She began the flight and, like a game, we continued following her. He passed by the Church of Saint Pierre and landed on the Place du Tertre , posing for the painters who gather there.
Suddenly she continued her journey and stopped in the vineyards of Montmartre, where we saw her plucking a sprig of vine. With it in its beak, it flew from the Lapin Agile cabaret to the Maison Rose, making us remember the famous painting by Picasso and his dove of peace...
Continuing his journey, from there he took us to the bust of Dalida, where he seemed to want to give love to the unfortunate artist... The dove took flight again, leaving behind the statue of Bishop Saint Denis and heading towards the Passe-muraille until stopping at the horns of the great Galette mill.
Without a doubt this dove carried a message!
He then flew over the Bateau Lavoir, the famous workshop where Picasso created his masterpieces... until finally stopping at the Je t'aime wall ... :)
We then understood the beautiful message that this dove was trying to convey to us; a message of peace, love and freedom.
And this, my city, is full of messages, stories, beautiful corners and curious facts that I would love to share with you.

Guide: Aitana
Guiding since 2022PRO
Hi! I'm Aitana. I was born and raised in Paris, and as a French-Spanish woman, I've always lived between these two cultures, which are an integral part of me. For the past four years, I've worked as a freelance guide in this city I know like the back of my hand, and I love sharing its history, its monuments, and also those hidden gems only locals know. I'm currently training to become an official tour guide in France so I can tell you every detail in greater depth. As a lifelong Parisian, I'll accompany you with energy, humor, and that critical yet authentic perspective that those of us who live here possess. If you want to discover Paris in a personal, genuine way, with the warmth of someone who experiences it every day, it would be a pleasure to be your guide.
