Paris Home Shares - Fun & Useful Links

Some Fun and Useful Links
 
Below are some of my favorite links about Paris and France.  Some are informative, some are just fun.  All are free.
 
Newsletters & E-zines
 
 Bonjour Paris - www.bonjourparis.com
Karen Fawcett's informative newsletter on the current happenings around Paris, including humorous articles on the foibles of French living. 
 
  Parler Paris - www.parlerparis.com
Adrian Leed's twice weekly newsletter about all things Parisian, from an  New Orleans expat point of view. Well written and full of information, her site is actually a hub for over 6 newsletter sites that she personally runs.  You could spend a full day every week just reading the latest.
 
  France Today - www.francetoday.com
Nice e-zine with hard copy subscriptions available.
 
 
  Paris Notes - www.parisnotes.com
If you are a lover of Paris, this monthly newsletter could just be the perfect fix.  Each newsletter contains articles on new restaurants, museum exhibits throughout Paris, articles of historical interest about Paris, and much much more. 
 
Music
 
 Cherie FM - www.cheriefm.fr  
France's largest radio station features 2 streaming radio stations, perfect to make you feel like you are right there in a quiet cafe.
 L'internaute - www.linternaute.com
One of France's more popular e-zines also offers a streaming radio station with a choice of 16 different genres to listen to, all with that French twist.
Language Schools & French Lessons
 Lutèce Langue- www.lutece-langue.com
Well, this is where Sue and I dove into some immersion French for 2 weeks, 5 hours a day.  Located on blvd Sebastopol, between rue Rivoli and Les Halles, this tiny school offers student-teacher ratios of less than 6 to 1, with dedicated yet fun-loving instructors, and prices that are quite a bit less than the more well-reknowned schools.  Worth every euro!
 Laura Lawless French lessons - http://french.about.com
French grammar lessons from Beginner to Advanced.  Tons of pages, vocabulary, sound clips and more.
  Francoise Dufau - Private lessons to brush up on that rusty French while you are in Paris.  Francoise, who is fluently bi-lingual, has been highly recommended by one of our members here in the US.
 
French Real Estate Sites - the closest you will get to an MLS in France
 
 SeLoger - www.seloger.com
The most popular site for listings by agents throughout France.  Enjoy finding the same property advertised by 3 different brokers for 3 different prices with 3 different square footage measurements.
 
Particuliér à Particuliér (PAP) - www.pap.fr
The premier site for FSBO (For Sale By Owner) listings of property for sale.
 
Explorimmo - www.explorimmo.com
Another site for listings by agents.  If you see it here, it's probably already sold.
