Kit list
- 1. • A journal/ notebook / sketchbook and writing/drawing equipment. Don’t forget; the purpose of the visit is to research ideas for your current and future projects. • Passport and EHIC. • Euros – you will need money for lunches, snacks and to buy postcards etc. Be aware that the rate of exchange is constantly fluctuating, and that Paris is never cheap. (It is of course entirely your choice how much spending money to bring). • Warm clothes (including a coat) and waterproof shoes. Paris in mid-February is likely to be cold and there will be lots of walking outside. If you wear the equivalent of slippers you will have cold feet! • Mobile phone (with a charger) and camera. Try not to have too much paraphernalia with your camera and bear in mind that you will need to keep it secure. Paris is no better or worse than other capital cities for the risk of pickpocketing – especially at tourist destinations such as the Louvre. • One ‘day bag’ to put essential items, sketchbooks and things you will need whilst walking around galleries, studios etc. and one larger bag/case for clothes/ toiletries etc. Your day bag should not have any liquids or sharps in as this will not be allowed onto the aeroplane. • English students- Paris Anthology • Alarm clock set on Paris time- make sure this is one that you know how to operate (you do not want it to go off in the middle of the night and wake your entire room up!). Try not to rely on your mobile phone- the battery will run out. • Toiletries (do not pack toiletries in your hand luggage). • EU- UK mains adaptor (for your hair straighteners and portable Teasmaid).
