What people say

Renata Schmidt

Available for hire

"La Petit Ceinture, or little belt, is the old railroad track that runs around the city of Paris. Inspired by french military generals, it was built as a way to supply and fortify the edges of the city. It was abandoned, but efforts in 2007 opened parts of it to the public as a quiet green filled park. "
