Paris Around

Posts Tagged ‘Business’

A woman traveling on business faces unique problematic situations. One of them is traveling with a team. When traveling on business with co-workers, you should reserve a hotel room alone, if possible. You will want and need privacy to relax, enjoy private time, or to catch up on work or sleep.

Dealing with someone else’s schedule and idiosyncracies can put a strain on both of you. What’s more, if you snore or walk about the room in cold cream and rollers, you risk shattering the business image you have so carefully created.

Traveling Alone

When seated at a bar or eating alone, a woman should carry a portfolio case to signal that she is traveling on business. Carry a book to read instead of a newspaper, unless you know how to fold a newspaper properly into a small parcel so it isn’t cumbersome to hold.
Don’t bring clients to your hotel room. Arrange to meet them in the lobby, hire a conference room, or upgrade to a suite.
Respect the rights of other hotel guests, and don’t use your room to host a party. Instead, celebrate an occasion with your co-workers in the hotel’s cocktail lounge.

Private Homes

Avoid staying at the home of a client or a business associate. Your host might find it stressful to entertain during a business occasion. It might also be stressful for you to be always “on” throughout the visit. If you must stay in a home, arrange your own transportation. Let your host know when you expect to arrive and exactly how long you will be staying. Bring along a non-personal gift that complements the lifestyle of the host.  Read more...

The founders of Elytour Paris, Incoming Luxury Agency are explaining their philosophy for travel:

A : On my very first trip to Paris I fell in love with the irresistible charm of this magical city. Of course I had already seen numerous images of the city in books, but in reality the “city of lights” proved to be much more majestic, warm and mysterious than I ever could have imagined.

From that moment on, I was driven by a passion to discover the magical and undiscovered treasures that are so abundant in the capital of France, which lead me to create a catalogue of fabulous places and rare gems. Now I can share this collection with all those who, like me, believe that a voyage is first and foremost an encounter between our senses and emotions.

A : Our passion for France and its richness guided us in the discovery of this magnificent land. We walked through the City of Lights, met with designers, artisans and restaurateurs to discover and personally evaluate thousands of Parisian establishments for you. Thus was born our selection of urban excursions, unique or classic, of charm and gourmandise. We are pleased to present you with this catalogue of Parisian experiences that we discovered and selected just for you.
