I was trying to think of something original to suggest for visitors to Paris. If you have seen all the major sites and shopped around a cooking class would be a delightful way to spend a morning, afternoon or evening. It is not so much that you will graduate a great chef as the whole experience. I found this class www.cooknwithclass.com on the internet that ...

Imagine yourself in a wide-open grassy field- you are surrounded by palm fronds, a pond, and the calls of peacocks off in the distance. Now imagine yourself in close proximity to a Parisian metro station that will take you to the center of the city in twenty minutes. It may seem a jarring difference of location but you can actually have the best of both worlds in the Bois de ...

Love is in the air and it is time to think about how to spend Valentines Day. My choice would be eating pastries in Paris.
I have just received a notice from Air France airlines that they are having special inclusive airfare and hotel packages to Paris for Valentine's Day.

I have never been fortunate enough to spend Christmas eve in Paris. One day I will and I know already how I would spend the evening. I would go to service at Notre Dame Cathedral. Outside the cathedral stands the Christmas tree all lit up.
Inside there is a nativity scene, honoring the birth of Christ. I can hear the organ playing music that would echo down the aisles of Notre ...

While the Seine may tempt visitors with it's majestic panoramas and sunset boat rides, the Canal Saint Martin in the tenth arrondissement offers an equally interesting view of a lesser known side of Paris. This picturesque waterway stretches three miles from the north-eastern corner of the city to rue Faubourg du Temple, near République. For a pleasant afternoon stroll, head down rue de la Grange aux Belles at the exit ...
