“Check out these succulent breakfast delicacies. If your breakfast were always as good as these food pieces, wouldn’t you wake up to a beautiful morning all the time? The block of cheese should be enough to make your mouth water. It would definitely taste best with the finest bread and the most delectable table wine. Don’t deprive yourself of a breakfast like this every now and then. Go ahead and give yourself some tasty rewards. Besides, we all should start the day with a full stomach.” |

“If you are looking for a good place to eat some meals while exploring the beautiful city of Paris in the broad daylight, La Boussole is one nice café to check out. It has got warm interiors, as shown in this picture. You will never miss out this café because it is covered with a blue poster on the outside. There’s an image of a famous soccer player just standing by the café’s front door too, as if it is welcoming you to go inside. Share your meal with someone at this place. The experience should be no less than satisfying.” |

“The streets of Paris are never as empty as this. But you have to admit that even such a sight can be lovely. France is a very beautiful city filled with tall buildings and modern streets. But you’ll definitely see a touch of the medieval era all around. This lamppost is just one of the reminders of such era. And you will see many of them lighting the roads at night, guiding both motorists and pedestrians. Explore Paris either during the day or during the night. You will surely have the time of your life while you’re there.” |

| Have you seen that transparent panthera ? Any idea what it could be ? A cristal panthera or a very expansive jewellery ? Not at all. It was just an exhibit hold in the Bercy Stadium and the attendants had to compete in ice sculpture ! A lot of parisians paid a visit to it. Once again ParisByPod was there for you. Let’s start this lesson before the ice melts ! |

“Underground train stations are a plenty in France. This beautiful shot of Paris’s long and fast rail transport shows how advanced and modern the infrastructure in and around the city really is. This green and white painted train can carry hundreds of passengers each trip. And it could take you to the next station in a matter of a few seconds. So if you need to go somewhere and you need to get there fast, just look for the nearest train station and take the next ride.” |
