This Is How You Can Sleep Over at the Louvre in Paris—for Free
Have you ever fantasized about actually spending a night at the museum? And not just for a quick date night, but actually sleeping amongst some of the history's most legendary art? If so, brace yourselves, because that dream could now be a reality at perhaps the world's most well-known museum: The Louvre in Paris.
Airbnb recently announced that it partnered with the world famous European museum to gift someone a luxurious one-night sleepover on April 30 surrounded by iconic works including Lenonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa portrait. All you have to do to be considered is go to airbnb.com/louvre April 12 11:59 p.m. (French time - GMT+1) and answer one simple question: Why would you be Mona Lisa's perfect guest?
"Paris is one of the most attractive cities in the world, and the Louvre is one of the most loved and celebrated institutions in Paris," said Emmanuel Marill in a statement, the general manager of Airbnb France. "We are thrilled to partner with them and to offer exciting and unique experiences that will celebrate our community and welcome Parisians and international travelers to rediscover the museum in a new and authentic way.”
Only one winner will be picked, but they're free to bring a guest. Perks of the too-good-to-be-true vacation include a personal late-night tour led by an art historian-who has also apparently given the Obamas and Jay-Z and Beyoncé the same tour-plus a toast in-front of the Mona Lisa, a gourmet meal in a pop-up dining room, and an acoustic concert in Napoleon III's bedroom. (Doesn't this sound like a date straight out of an episode of The Bachelor?)
The winner's airfare will be covered, in addition to two nights at an Airbnb in Paris, optional tourist activities, travel insurance, and all meals and ground transportation to enjoy while you're in the city of love.
So yes, this is literally the trip of a lifetime. Go ahead and take your chance and visit Airbnb right now to try your hand at winning-and good luck, because here at OprahMag.com headquarters, we've all already entered.
