Enjoy a stroll through the Python-Duvernois neighborhood fair, where a lot of activities are going on––food stands, bike rides, and much more!

The Python-Duvernois neighborhood, in Paris’s 20th arrondissement, is having a block party filled with games, music, and food. There’s even a stand on alcoholism prevention, complete with beer goggles!

The locals interviewed at the Python-Duvernois neighborhood fair defend the reputation of their area and compete to win a roll of paper towels (or perhaps something a little more prize-worthy).

In this next installment of Télé Bocal’s coverage of the Python-Duvernois block party, we hear from a group of kids who’ve made a courageous trip down an enormous slide, and from a municipal advisor who shares with us her inspiring message of solidarity.

Our delightful young guide takes the opportunity to explain why she loves her neighborhood of Python-Duvernois. We meet some of the locals, including an aspiring Michael Schumacher and some young footballers.

In this video brought to us by Allons en France, a French government program that encourages students to learn the language and culture of France, young people from all over the world tell us about what learning French means to them.

If you’re ever in Arles, make sure to stop off at this scrumptious fresh food market, full of local cheeses, vegetables, and fish straight off the boat!

You might have noticed that the French word for breakfast literally means “little lunch.” Instead of the pancakes and waffles of the US and the full breakfast of the British Isles, the French prefer a lighter fare for their morning meal. But that doesn’t mean they won’t chow down later in the day….

Catherine shows us how to spot the differences between a seventeenth-century building and an eighteenth-century one in this introduction to the southern French city of Arles.

Catherine continues her tour of Arles by taking us through the city’s narrow streets lined with old houses, which offer some nice shade during the hot summer months.

Arles is an interesting town to visit, well-known for its Roman amphitheater. At one point two hundred houses were hiding inside the arena itself.

Did you ever think you could drink champagne while kayaking? You can with “Rando Bulles de Champ’ et Canoë” (“Outing, Champagne Bubbles, and Canoeing”), a kayaking service which will take you along the Seine in the Aube department in the region of (where else?) Champagne-Ardenne.

Come inside this fabulous restaurant and bar in Paris’s 19th arrondissement and see what the chef is preparing and the bartender is mixing. Just don’t watch this one on an empty stomach!

Fanny and Corrine tell us all about the merits of their hometowns. Crepes and parties? Or hot weather and bouillabaisse? Either way, you get some lovely beaches!

Perhaps some people enjoy the five long, cold months of winter in France, but our Fanny would rather spend her time outside in the sun, not freezing in line just to wait for the coat check… Which season gets your vote?

Fred is a Frenchman living and working in Miami. In this video, he shows us the different kinds of sailboats he uses at his job, Miami Catamarans.

Meet Fred, a young Frenchman who still feels French even though he lives in Miami. Student by day, sailor by night, Fred makes the most of Miami’s sunshine, cultural diversity, and, of course, wind.

The Gallery Art Up Deco in scenic Strasbourg showcases the work of contemporary artists and aims to have something for everyone. Owner and gallery manager Toufik Zekhnini shows us the ropes.

A cemetery might not top your list of places to visit in a city. But actually, cemeteries are a treasure trove of information on a city’s history and architectural taste. The cemetery in Roubaix is particularly rich, with Gothic and art deco tombs side by side.

Not only does Jean-Marc have a totally sweet ride, he also gets to ski on some of the coolest slopes in France. Lucky guy!
