Hello
I will be visiting Paris in February and would like to know the average tep. that time of year.

Thank you very much!

Dear readers,

I have been looking for her all Summer. I hunted the streets of le Marais, the banks of La Seine, the gardens of Luxembourg. I went to parties in Saint Germain, and I was starting to get desperate, would I find finally the girl of Summer 2008?

I saw many girls, blondes, brunettes, with short skirts, long legs, with boots, with spartans, trendy or not, tourists or locals, and I was never satisfied, because I did not find that touch of personality that makes the girl a true Parisian girl, I mean that something which makes you think, French or not, blonde or foxy, from Paris or from Zanzibar, more >>

Most French athletes of less commercialised sports than football, tennis or golf, need a job to make a living. Some of them are employed by banks, the post office or the Métro itself.

It has been chosen, due to the J.O. to make an exhibition of photo-portraits of those athletes, both at their training sessions and at work.

The result can been seen until the 19th September at the Gare Saint Lazare underground station, at the entrance closest to Place du Havre.

The photos are by Vincent Ohl and do not just show the athletes in more >>

I’ve already written about the pleasure my son and I have at Les Jardins du Luxembourg. We go as often as we can, whatever the season.

I don’t know why but I have always wanted to go to La Fête de l’Humanité. Maybe because it is around the time of my birthday? This year I definitely want to go and take Felix to his first music festival. (Especially now that I see that it is free for people 15 and under!) I am so out of the loop that I don’t know most of the music groups that are performing but I love going to festivals to wander around and discover new groups. Let’s hope for good weather!

Check out this list of performers here!
