Not law-related—I have a 12-hour layover in Paris this August. I’ve already done all the major tourist attractions on a past trip (Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Notre-Dame, etc). What are some cool, low-key, or local things I could do this time around?

Are you into luxury handbags? It would be a great opportunity to go shopping!

Go to the Luxembourg Gardens, visit a street market, take a cruise along the Seine, go to Disney Paris, the possibilities are endless. It depends on what you like to do. I like to explore the different arrondissements when I visit. I’ll go to whichever coffee or restaurant looks interesting and roam around. I get massages, shop, etc.

The city will be really quiet because it’s August and some shops may be closed. Favorite lowkey museums are l’orangerie in Jardin de Luxembourg, petit palais, and musée jacquemart André. They also just reopened the musée histoire de Paris carnavalet (the history of Paris). You can also just grab a baguette sandwich and sit by canal st Martin. Enjoy!

Stroll Le Marais. Visit the Little Red Door for cocktails. Hit the club on a hot night. Go shopping at boutiques for vintage pieces. Search for some of the best French-influenced/fusion cuisine.

Orsay museum is amazing.
If you're Catholic, go to the Chapel of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. A lot of people overlook this chapel.

Do a tour of the Palais Garnier (it’s gorgeous and the theater phantom of the opera is set in). Visit the Deyrolle (*technically* it’s a taxidermy store but it’s super super cool, all the animals were zoo animals that died of old age). eat at Le Relasi de L’entrecote (there are “l’entrocote knocks off, don’t bother they aren’t the same). Lastly if you like skin care go to Pharmabest or City Pharma (my $60 Caudile eye cream was €12)

Any advice on what and how to prepare for the final loop interview for a PM position for

I know the BR is going to be behavioral, but the others will they be Behavioral or product based or a mix of both? If some one has gone through the experience, can you please share what it was like. TIA! 🙏
