Ever wanted to spend some time on a yacht in the Bahamas? No, that’s not a trick question — now you can! Take a tour with Patrick Barbary and his captain’s chair.

We’re all a part of this big, happy family that is humanity. Now if only we could get our “universal citizen” passports…

Sure, the kitchen might be a little smaller on a yacht, but that doesn’t mean you can’t prepare a delicious dish! Patrick Barbary whips up some pasta for us and invites us to dine with him. Cheers, Captain!

Captain Barbary takes us around his yacht and shows us a few of his nautical necessities, like basil and something to take care of the bad guys…

Meet Pierre Carl and take a tour around his Montreal sports shop, called D’un sport à l’autre (which means “from one sport to another”). Bikes are the top-seller in summer, but you’ll see they have fun stuff for any season!

Need a tutorial on how to fix up a bike? Master mechanic Yassin from D’un sport à l’autre shows us just where to put the wrench.

The Butte Montmartre is a famous Parisian tourist hot spot, much of it filled with teeming crowds of camera-happy visitors. But if you take a look down some of the side streets and back alleys, you may be surprised by all the magnificent sights to be seen.

Just in case you haven’t already learned enough about fixing up bikes, Pierre Carl from “D’un sport à l’autre” gives us a handy little tutorial.

Fanny braves the elements to tell us about her winter fashions and accessories and how best to stay warm during the colder months.

Fanny’s not only an expert on what to wear during different seasons—she clearly knows all about what’s good to eat. Raclette or rougail sausage, anyone?

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?

So what do the Fs of F&F Pizza stand for? Frais et Fabuleux—Fresh and Fabulous! Watch the magic unfold as Jean-Phillipe makes a “carbonara” pizza and a “hab’s” pizza. Just don’t watch on an empty stomach.

Did you know there are 55,000 different kinds of beer? And more than 5,400 of those are German? You can find quite a few of these at Le Village de la Bière, a shop in popular French city Strasbourg. How long would it take to sample them all…?

Laws in Strasbourg prevent Le Village de la Bière from selling beer for consumption on the premises, but they don’t stop this beer seller from being passionate about his craft.

This Parisian poetry fair sees poets young and old, from all walks of life. Perhaps poetry is, as one attendee says, a link extended across space, time, and people.

Poetry, photography, typography! All come together to make beautiful books, available at the Paris Poetry Fair.

Our tour guide Daniel is back to show us around Île Saint-Louis, one of the two islands situated between the Right Bank and the Left Bank of Paris—right in the middle of the Seine. Stroll along the riverbanks, visit the churches and cathedrals, and enjoy the picturesque Parisian beauty.

Meet Melissa Mars: actress, singer, songwriter, storyteller, dreamer, “Martian.” In the first of her interviews with Yabla, Melissa tells us how her career got launched.

Melissa talks about the making of the music video for her second clip “Et Alors!” She was lucky enough to find a director whose vision matched her own. Great minds think alike!

Melissa Mars talks about her third album, À la recherche de l’amour perdu, and the making of the video for her hit single "Love Machine."

Though the Eiffel Tower used to be called, somewhat derisively, “the metal asparagus” by many Parisians, today it’s one of the most iconic and adored structures in the world. Here we get expert tips: on the best views, the best time to go, and what to see in the Tour itself.

How many singers do you know who could pull off a dress made of origami? Melissa sparkles in renowned director Olivier Dahan’s rock opera full of glitter, color, costumes, and music that shines just as brightly.

Fate works in funny ways. Melissa’s tale of how she came to be in Mozart, l'opéra rock shows us that some things are just written in the stars. We’re glad she agreed.

Melissa tells us how the music video for “Army of Love” came to be. She produced and directed it herself, with the help of animator Thomas Guerigen. It was a labor of love—one that paid off!
