      50 shades of lockdown: part 3

      My blog posts are lagging a little behind events. But I’ll catch up soon, I promise. Or maybe it’s better to write with a few days of perspective in my pen. In any case, I hope you enjoyed part 1 and part 2. Here’s the next installment from English Copywriter in Paris.  Day 15: dragging on…

      50 shades of lockdown: part 2

      50 shades of lockdown: part 2

      I’m back with more musings about life under lockdown. Having survived the first week, I began week 2 with a strange mix of optimism, boredom and blasé. Day 8: a bit of blur The days are starting to run together. It’s harder and harder to distinguish them apart. The big event of the day was…

      50 shades of lockdown: part 1

      50 shades of lockdown: part 1

      We haven’t (yet) been locked down for 50 days. Although it does sometimes feel like it! But, as I have more free time, I decided to jot down a few of my own nuances from the confines of my apartment. I’m not promising big statements or revolutionary solutions to any of the problems generated by…

      English Copywriter in Paris: moments of uncomplicated calm in Paris

      English Copywriter in Paris: moments of uncomplicated calm in Paris

      Paris is a city on the go. Not up there with the likes of New York, but by French standards it’s the fast-paced high life. There is little time to stop and take a moment to do nothing, simply stare at the sky or breath few moments of calm in Paris (without a tingling feeling…

      English Copywriter in Paris: understanding the Rentrée

      English Copywriter in Paris: understanding the Rentrée

      Definition Rentrée, Nom féminin : Reprise des activités après des vacances This can be loosely translated as the ‘going back’ after the summer holidays. Yet the concept doesn’t exist in the same way in Anglo-Saxon countries. The equivalent of ‘back to school’ is far more limited. La rentrée encompasses a way of life and a…

      English Copywriter in Paris: making Rentrée resolutions

      The rentrée is well and truly with us. There’s no escape. It’s back to school, work and routine. Gone are the long lazy summer days of July and August. Yet, as well as being all about ‘returning’, the rentrée is also a new start or beginning. Aside from holidays, the French love nothing better than…

      English copywriter in Paris: Paris freelancing hotspots

      English copywriter in Paris: Paris freelancing hotspots

      Having recently analysed French attitudes to freelancing (shock, horror and downright envy!), now it’s time to get down to details and sift out the best places for freelancing the days away. Cafés and websites dedicated to freelancing are springing up all over Paris. I haven’t tested all of them. I’m kind of slow off the…

      English copywriter in Paris: arrondissements apart

      English copywriter in Paris: arrondissements apart

      A year ago I moved from my beloved 11ème, which I’d adopted when arriving in Paris some four years earlier, and into the deep depths of the 20ème. On a map this may represent a tiny hop of no more than 2km (a 25 minute walk), but physiologically and socially this was a big leap.…

      English Copywriter in Paris: one sunny bobo afternoon

      The sun is shining. Hooray! With very hardworking intentions, I headed over to the picnicker-lined Canal St Martin in the east of Paris. I wanted to check out the new freelancing haven Café Craft, before setting down to a spot of work al fresco. It was tough, but I finally got pen to paper. Yes,…

      English Copywriter in Paris: living in limbo

      © Giulia Agostinelli, Flickr Living in foreign country is a fabulous and enriching experience. As a Brit who’s been living in Paris for the last 5 years, I can safely say that you learn a lot about yourself, another culture and also (more surprisingly) about your own country. As I toppled off the train at…
