Bonjour !
And welcome back to your monthly newsletter.

February is the romantic month in a parisian’s life. On Valentine’s Day, celebrated on February 14th, just walk in the streets of Paris and you will see lots of Parisians holding flowers in their hands. Indeed, it is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other, sending Valentine's cards, or gifting candy.

Can you read Paul's desperate message : "Emma, je t'aime, reviens !" ?

Enjoy that day in Paris with ParisByPod.com !
