Paris, Differently.

This is not a guide about croissants and berets.

It's a guide to the Paris that does something to you. The cemetery people visit like a park, the garden that meets you wherever you are emotionally, the dog park in the Marais that is inexplicably good for the soul.

I'm Caitlin Dwyer, an American therapist living in Paris. I experience this city the way I experience most things: looking for what it does to people from the inside. This guide is a collection of the places I actually go for my soul, for inspiration, for food, for the kind of souvenir that means something.

A free 9-page guide to the Paris that doesn't always make it onto the postcards from an American therapist who moved here and never left.
