Paul Millet is a bold Frenchman, whose passions are mountains, skis, travel and freeride skiing.

The Luxury named Freedom

33-year old Paul Millet’s hobby was fulfilling his life so well that it became his job. During the winter he descends high mountains off-piste and records it on his camera. Then he provides his videos to the well-known sports brand Salomon. Thereby he brings viewers authentic, unique videos, which mostly come from Chamonix in France, the area in which he undertook all the possible freeride routes. He is also devoted to extreme descents of majestic mountains on a bike, which he also records. When watching the videos that he recorded the audience becomes breathless.

In addition he acts as an instructor of skiing in the luxury resort of Chamonix, which is another source of his earnings. Once the winter is over, he packs up his things and heads off to travel the world and his long and adventurous vacation has begun. Do not imagine, however, that this includes any luxury in first class hotels. That somehow does not mesh with his character nor with his extremist spirit.

Many Forms of Luxurious Life

The prerequisites for such a lifestyle are combining a free spirit with courage. People who need their life to be cushioned and to build a career and enjoy security would probably seriously suffer from experiencing this free life. The word “luxury” can mean something different for everybody, however. One will see material advantage in it, while another will enjoy the freedom and the opportunity to find the purpose of life in his or her hobby. Deciding what to call a luxury is up to each one of us individually.

Le Café de la Paix, which offers its guests a luxurious experience, is the most famous and best-known café in Paris. Located close to the Royal Place Vendôme, on the ground floor of the Art Nouveau InterContinental Le Grand Hotel (formerly Hotel de la Paix) it offers spectacular views of the Opera Garnier.

The architect of the building, Charles Garnier, was also the chief architect of the nearby Opera House.

The café has been in operation since 1862 and it has always been a meeting place for the celebrities, the prominent artists and the writers of its time. Its frequent guests used to be, for example, Emile Zola, Guy de Maupassant and Oscar Wilde.

In 1896 screenings were held in the mezzanine. Admission then cost one franc and the screenings took place from 8 p.m. to midnight. The luxurious café has also become an inspiration to a variety of artists. The Café de la Paix and its surroundings can often be seen on paintings by the renowned Antoine Blanchard.

In 1975 the building was declared to be a historical monument, which further increased its importance and currently it annually attracts a large number of visitors from around the world. 13 years ago the café underwent a complete reconstruction. The original garden decorations were removed, which enabled the space to breathe, the historic luxury atmosphere of the café was definitively preserved however.

You should definitely not miss the luxurious interior and the unique atmosphere of this already legendary enterprise during your romantic stroll through Paris.
