CIAO·PARIS
One of 13 Paris types
The Museum Ghost
One exhibition, and every word on the walls.
You go to the museum on the first Sunday of the month, then to a bookshop, then to a quiet glass of wine with a book. You saw more art than anyone you know and told nobody.
What they actually do
- Plans the day around one exhibition
- Reads the wall text, all of it
- Ends in a quiet bar with a book
The contradiction
You have read every wall text in Paris and argued with each one in your head.
A typical route
- First-Sunday free museums
- bookshop
- quiet glass of wine reading
