I’m Orla, a passionate storyteller who believes that connection reveals the soul of a city. Originally from the UK, I grew up in the South West of France, and fell in love with Paris when I moved here in 2021.

I’ve worked in hospitality, sustainability, and rehabilitation projects, and I’ve guided tours with love and energy.
Now I’m building Avec Orla : a project that’s part tour company, part cultural movement, and soon, a creative hub in Paris… and one day, in Marseille !

My Journey

From cafés and hostels to sustainability and rehabilitation projects, from tours to travels across Latin America and Europe, I discovered that what moves me most is the connection between people, cultures, and ideas.

That’s how Avec Orla was born: a project built around people, connection, and conversation.

My vision

My dream is to create a community, through walking tours, storytelling, and soon, a bar that unites creative minds.
Because I believe that every city has a soul, and every person has a story worth sharing.
