About Us

ABOUT LDB

LDB est une abréviation de mon nom à rallonge, Léo(nore) de Boisgisson.

Je suis journaliste free-lance, auteure, guide conférencière, médiatrice culturelle et traductrice.

A l'oral comme à l'écrit  je construis des histoires, je compose avec le réel et la fiction, les données factuelles et la musicalité de la langue, au final ce qui compte, c'est la qualité du récit.

Je crois profondément aux vertus de l'éclectisme, j'aime la littérature classique et l'argot, les églises gothiques et les mégalopoles qui brillent la nuit, le rock 80's et les Kriptokittens, la photographie, Henry Miller, Sophie Calle, le pain, le vin et la Chine où j'ai passé 15 ans.

Basée à Paris après une longue vie à Pékin, j'arpente la ville comme une baudelairienne du 21ème siècle, toujours aux premières loges du spectacle du quotidien et j'offre mes services en tant que guide pour des visites cultivées et décalées.

 

LDB is the short version of my long name, Leo(nore) de Boisgisson.

I'm a Free lance Writer, a tour guide, a culture mediator and a translator.

I write Facts/ Fiction/ Surreal stuffs / Myths/ Tales and Lies

Same when I lead a visit, I talk facts, fiction, surreal stuffs, tales and lies. All that matter is the quality of the story telling :-)

I strongly believe in the good of ecleticism,  I love classical litterature and slang, gothic churches and glittering megalopolis at night, 80's rock and Kriptokittens, photography, Henry Miller, Sophie Calle, bread and wine and China where I lived for 15 years.

Based in Paris after a long Beijing life, I walk the city in a 21th century Baudelaire way, always on the lookout of the amazing everyday life spectacle and I also offer my services as a guide, proposing cultured and quirky tours around town.

Museum tours

Fancy a Louvre? Or a nocturnal visit of Pompidou? How about Musée Gustave Moreau, a hidden gem nestled in a house with a creaking plank floor? Or a contemplative session of the sensual works at Musée d'Orsay? 

As a licensed tour guide i have access to most of the museums and I can provide a skip the line entrance !

Gallery hopping

Paris has always been a vibrant hub for modern and contemporary art. I propose you a tailor made tour introducing to both iconic galleries such as Thaddeus Roppac, Marian Goodman, Kamel Mennour as well as emerging art spaces, may it be in the upper Marais or in Belleville. I'll propose you the most accurate selection based on the best ongoing shows.

Neighborhood Tours

Each area of Paris has its vibe and deserves a specific exploration. Marais, its narrow lanes and gorgeous mansions; Belleville, its messy yet friendly atmosphere where immigrants and artists all mingle and shop at the chinese store; Aligre and its sunday morning flea market etc... the options are countless! Just be my guest!
