What’s the experience like?

We slid into the quiet car just as the city was starting to wake up — you know that in-between hour when boulangeries are opening and Parisians are still half asleep? Our driver, Alain, greeted us with this warm “Bonjour” and a smile that felt like he actually meant it. He helped juggle our bags (mine was way too heavy — I always overpack), then we pulled away from the curb, Paris sliding past the window in that soft morning light. There’s something about leaving a place you love that makes you pay attention to every little thing — the smell of coffee drifting out of a café near Bois de Boulogne, the gold edges of buildings catching the sun. I tried not to get too sentimental but… well, it’s Paris.

Alain chatted with us about shortcuts he takes during rush hour (apparently traffic can add ages if you’re not careful), and even pointed out where he used to bring his kids for picnics in Bois de Boulogne. He had this easy way of making conversation — not forced at all. At one point he offered bottled water and switched on the WiFi for me because my phone was “having a moment.” The drive to Charles de Gaulle took maybe thirty minutes, give or take — honestly I lost track watching people on scooters zip by and thinking about how different airports feel depending on who drops you off.

I didn’t expect to feel so relaxed heading out of Paris; usually transfers make me anxious about timing or missing something. But Alain kept checking our flight status (he called it “flight stalking,” which made me laugh), so we never felt rushed. There was this tiny moment right before pulling up to CDG where everything went quiet except for suitcase wheels clicking together in the trunk — just a small pause before all the airport chaos starts again. Funny how those little silences stick with you.
