Bonjour, I'm Roffy
Paris is a puzzle I am still happily solving. Almost ten years living here and I have never stopped finding new corners of it.
I feel it on the Seine, on the streets of the Marais and Montmartre, in old caves turned into little art spaces. I love art, history, architecture and, of course, the food. Those are the things I will happily talk your ear off about while we walk.
My slogan is simple. Travel, eat, discover, repeat. Come find the Paris I love.
Roffy
Hidden courtyards, an artisan or two, the cobbled corners of the Marais that never make the guidebooks.
Down past the Pantheon, we browse the bouquinistes and talk about the Paris that reads, argues and lingers over coffee.
The Eiffel Tower and Notre-Dame from the water, at the pace of the river, with someone who calls this home.
The climb to Sacre-Coeur, a viewpoint most visitors miss, and the kind of goodbye that turns into a plan to come back.
The signature
A relaxed, history-light half day on foot. We wander the neighborhoods most visitors walk straight past, stop for coffee where the locals do, and take in the views from rooftops and quiet gardens. You will pick up a few French words along the way, only if you want to.
It is your day. Tell Roffy what you are curious about and the route bends to match. First time in Paris or your fifth, it works either way.
A few favorites
Hard, hard, the artist's life. Somebody has to eat all these croissants.

★★★★★Our tour guide Roffy made us feel like we were walking the streets of Paris with a friend. She showed us hidden gems that we would have never found on our own.
Lily, City Unscripted
★★★★★We were at the beating heart of Parisienne life, learning its history and modernism in arts, architecture, education and governance. Merci Boucoup, Roffy!

★★★★★Roffy was knowledgeable, friendly and upbeat. She engaged with my 18 year old kids as well as me and my wife. Would highly recommend.

ROF Paris
Between tours, Roffy curates a small pop-up of second-hand Paris. Vintage pieces with a story, chosen by eye, one rail at a time.
Ask her where it lands next. It moves around the city, and it never stays long.
Curated, pre-loved, très Paris. Come say bonjour
Tell her when you are in town and what you are dreaming of. One small group at a time, always. She usually replies within a day.
