Where to telework in Ile-de-France?

Teleworking, France got into it with the Covid but it is a use which has established itself well, it is also quite practical in Ile-de-France where the subject of transport to go to the place of his professional activity is often restrictive…But staying alone working all day at home is not always ideal…

There are many places where you can go to telework with perhaps two scenarios: you need to make calls or video calls or you don't need to make noise.

If you work in silence, some museums have workspacesthis is particularly the case for lyrical gaiety in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, but many Ile-de-France museums also have a catering area which can do the trick: working and going to an exhibition during the break is not wrong !

There are also all the libraries which are places to settle down with additional documentation available.

Many towns in the Ile-de-France region have media libraries?

If you are in Fontainebleau for example, there is the municipal media library at 15, rue Royale. The only small problem is that it is only open in the afternoon on Thursdays and Fridays.

In Saint-Germain-en-Layethere are two media libraries including the Marc-Ferro media library, 9 rue Henri IV with great equipment: wi-fi, phone or laptop charging lockers, a photocopier and borrowing terminals.

In Paris, there is of course the public information library at the Center Pompidou which is a perfect place to work with a new, quite appreciable remote printing service.

All this is very good but it is for those who work in silence, and what if we have to call or make video calls regularly?

There are also options but this creates a constraint, it must be recognized.

Personally I like going to a brasserie for example, it's a little noisy but it's lively and with headphones you can get by. There are living spaces like third places that can also be suitable, the Recyclerie or the Maison des metallos in Paris for example.

Hotel bars are also quite quiet and suitable for teleworking. And I also discovered the company MyWO which offers paid or free teleworking spaces: https://mywo.fr/
