Pola | Jetting Around

Hi, I'm Pola! I have an invitation for fellow #travel addicts and city lovers. Join me and 600+ others on FB, in the friendly and fun Jetting Around group: bit.ly/JA-group. ✈🌐

I'm back on IG, after a long break. The new version of JA goes beyond travel. It's a place where I also share my 'solopreneur' journey (business and creative), hoping to inspire others to live their best lives. ✨ I'd love for you to follow along: instagram.com/jetting.around. 💙

@LouiseWeebe In and out of here, mostly out...

Writers of Twitter - are we still here? Hoping I'm not the only one stubborn enough to refuse to leave. Give us a shout if you're still hanging in there!

@TravelFoodiesTV Thanks, but I'm leaving to spend some time with my family. Where in Paris did you live? 🙂

@jettingaround I lived there! Love it! Enjoy the #ParisOlympics !!

I've lived in Paris for over 8 years. If you have any questions about what it's *really* like to visit or live here, go ahead and ask! #Paris2024 #ParisOlympics

@gnome_trotting P.S. It may get super crowded starting tomorrow. Like many Parisians, I'm leaving, but I know some friends are staying and they've really gotten into the Olympic spirit. 😁

@gnome_trotting 2/2: If someone wants to visit for the 1st time and is not interested in the Olympics, I'd say wait til' September. The weather will be nice, bakeries, restaurants etc. will reopen after the summer shutdown, and there will be more cultural events + easier to visit landmarks.

Jetting Around is back in action on Instagram, with a new vibe! ✨✨ I hope to inspire you with #travel guides, creative writing, and insights about #expatlife and #entrepreneurship. Follow here: instagram.com/jetting.around.

@rajan_2009 Hi Raja. I find Paris to be generally safe. But be aware of pickpockets on the metro, in metro stations, and in touristy areas (like in any big city). Always have your hand on or close to your wallet and phone.

@jettingaround Easy question: how safe it now? I been to Paris few times.. many years ago..

@DoroLef Right?! It feels even longer, because prior to the move I was here every couple of months.

@jettingaround Time is flying - woah, eight years 🎉

@ChannelingRBG P.S. Despite the cat calling, which is annoying AF, I find Paris to be safe for a woman. I live pretty much in the center and I can go for an evening walk without fearing for my life.

@ChannelingRBG 2/2: The best part? Affordable healthcare, good food (not so processed), work-life balance, a great train system + easy access to all of FR. Worst? High rents for small apartments, high taxes/social charges (but with a good "ROI"), and honestly? Cat calling on the street! Ugh.

@AnthonyGaenzle Hi Anthony. I specialize in strategic content for tech & travel tech companies, and I have previous full-time experience in B2B/SaaS content development. Here's my website: jettingaround.com.

Are you a talented freelance copywriter? If so, drop me a reply with your portfolio. We're looking for talented folks to jump in on projects when needed. Reply with your portfolio and a one-liner about yourself if you are interested. 👇

@jamiefewery @womenwriterswin Hi Jamie, thanks for sharing the rates. I sent you a DM.

@womenwriterswin Hi! Rates vary tbh. For freelance we tend to look somewhere between £250 and £400 per day DOE. For this, we’d be looking at a project or contract rate.

Little boost for this. We're looking for a copywriter to work with us on a 6 month contract role (initially). Would suit a copywriter with B2B experience, a content specialist or a journo looking to change lanes. DMs open for queries.

@lonelyplanet A good hair dryer. It's the first thing I check in hotel rooms.

What’s ONE thing a hotel has to have for you to book?

@jazminmedranog Thanks, Jazmin! It's coming soon. ☺️

I'm launching an online store with #vintagejewelry from around the world with two collections to kick things off: Paris and the French Riviera! 🌐 If you'd like to be notified when the shop opens (and get an exclusive discount), subscribe here: yourvintagevibes.com. ✨
