Hello I am Nikki Wang. I am Chinese-French grew up in an international environment and now living in Paris. While always working in Finance and travelling around the world for my job and my own thirst of discovery , I have been to 35 countries already and the number is still growing. I was also a freelance contributor to lifestyle media's about art, design and fashion. These various experiences lead me to the most privileged happenings in the City of Light and nurtured my strong desire to share my secret find of Paris and exchange with rest of the world.
I lived in all the hippest neighborhood in Paris, le Marais, Canal st martin, Parc Monceau and Belleville, with the time I accumulated good knowledge and network of artists, galleries, designers, food shops, concept stores, cocktail bars and other off-the-beaten-track address. I love Paris as a local but also as a tourist, I have a strong passion to find the best-kept-secret and share my personal addresses to the ones who are curious to discover the hidden gems and sensitive to culture and human contacts.
In the summer of 2018, I quit my office job and created an cultural tourism agency in Paris with my boyfriend. We created our own walking tours, daytrips, weekend discoveries and any tailor-made cultural voyages. All the trips we design show only authenticity and human value which we believe is the most essential element of travel.
