how to homestay

Host Tips & TricksPick someone who has similar interests and language skills.

Bring your host a gift that represents you or where you’re from.

Agree and work kindly with your host with his/her “house rules.”

Don’t be disappointed if you sleep on a mattress on the floor or futon.

Smile and show enthusiasm throughout your stay. Be sure to chat often too.

Treat your host to an end of the trip meal as a way of saying thanks.

Send a thank you note once you’vereturned home and ask to keep in touch.

“Every morning she made me

take a banana for class because she didn’t think

I ate enough breakfast.”

“We rode bikes all over the city, avoiding

taxis and traffic.”

You can purchase either a 1 or 7 day velib subscription ticket.Then just pick up a bike at one of the many stations throughout the city and pay by the 1/2 hour, with an unlimited # of journeys based on your subscription.

Renting

With more than 1,000 stations, 20,000 bikes and 371km of bike lanes in Paris, riding a velib in Paris is not as daunting as it seems. Stations are located every 300m with 24/7 service.

Riding

Remember...Pay attention to the other people on the street.

Do not go up onto and do not cycle along footpaths.

Do not go through red lights at junctions.

Signal with your arm when you are changing direction.

Cycle on the right-hand side of the road.

Increase your visibility at night

Do not cycle close to parked cars (car doors opening).
