Of course when you think of Paris, you think of fashion and twice a year Paris becomes a giant runway! From the 2nd to the 5th of July the Fall/Winter 2007-2008 (Haute Couture) designers will be strutting their stuff! As I write, the Men’s Spring/Summer 2008 collections are in full force from June 28th until […]
Looking for something to do near the water now that summer is here and best of all it’s free? Then join the festivites this week-end in either Paris or Val-de-Marne with the Water Festival. This year’s guest of honor is the Saint-Laurent River in Quebec, Canada. Festivites take place on June 30 and July 1st between […]
One of the great things about living in Paris are all the different markets; from food to flowers, or books to stamps, there’s sure to be a market in Paris selling just what you’re looking for. Picking the best ones however is almost an impossible task; I may love one because of the carnival atmosphere and […]
Theme day here at b5 media is all about men, so I thought, why not Frenchmen! Here is a hodgepodge of things for and about these, oh so charming men!
1. Over at ThinkExist there are a number of interesting quotes by famous Frenchmen. You can read more, but here is just a small sample.
“Love is like an […]
Jon over at The DC Traveler sent me a link about the French being the worst tourist according to 15,000 European hotel agents who took an Expedia survey. At Gadling, where the article was posted, they also state that American tourists (in the same survey) were voted the worst dressed! Why am I not surprised by these findings? […]
One of my favorite parks outside of Paris is the Parc de Sceaux, located just south of the city. With its château, large park, fountains, and walking paths, it’s easy to spend the day here. The town itself is quaint with plenty of little shops, boutiques, bookstores, and bakeries. One of my exes and I […]
Awhile back, I wrote that Barbra Streisand would be appearing at Bercy in June. Well, the date is fast approaching (June 26) and rather than ticket prices going up, or being sold out; they have actually come down! It seems that Europeans will not dish out the dough for BS!
Babs was asking, (if my memory […]
The first time that I dined at this famous restaurant, I was invited by a French writer which made it all the more interesting to say the least. At the time, I was a young girl trying steak tartare for the first time in my life, sipping champagne on the terrace, and not really aware […]
What I love about France is that the French are so versatile when it comes to showing films. I know in the U.S., unless you live in a large city, most foreign films are just not accessible. Not so in France, and even more so in Paris.
If you’re a film buff, then you need to […]
Now that summer is just about here and the weather is hot! Okay, it may not be hot where you are, but it’s hot where I happen to be traveling at the moment, so people tend to look for ways of cooling off. (”I’ll take a margarita, señor!” Opps! But then again, that’s me!)
Most people, however, love […]
