Paris, often called the "City of Love," is considered one of the most romantic destinations in the world. In fact, some 36,000 travel there to propose to their significant other each year. What's not to love about its charm (aside from "Paris Syndrome," of course)? From riding bicycles along the Seine to eating fresh baguettes and croissants with espresso in the morning to iconic sights like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe — we're humming Édith Piaf's "La Vie en Rose" just imagining it. But tourists to Paris often deal with hordes of crowds and expensive flights. Luckily, Canada has a city on this side of the pond that offers all the charm of Paris without the crowds or expense.

Paris has changed a lot in the last few decades. Not so long ago, the tourist circuit was limited to a small number of famous locations and you’d find few locals who spoke more than a handful of phrases in English. These days, Paris is a more worldly, cosmopolitan place. However, the densely packed French capital still has its distinct way of doing things. Parisian culture places huge value on food, beauty and leisure, and many of the faux pas (at least in the eyes of Parisians) made by visitors occur when these sacred principles are infringed. From dining to (not) queuing, here’s your easy guide to navigating the City of Lights the Parisian way.

Nation is a metro station in the east of Paris, away from the city’s carefully curated Olympic trail. There are no giant pink signs pointing the way to the nearest venue here. On the platform, a man and his dog slump on a rotten mattress.

When I learned the brown tarantula is also native to Missouri, I gasped, and when I say I'm not too fond of spiders of any genus is an understatement. It's psychological. They have too many legs.

Throughout its turbulent history, Europe has experienced numerous mass migrations of which London has frequently been at the receiving end. In a historical context, migration has always contained an economic element, but the majority of incomers were driven from home to avoid political repression, religious persecution, civil war or natural disaster. There seems to be a timeless aspect to the toxic debate on migration. Opponents of an “alien” influx tend to speak in abstract terms and are prone to use metaphors such as swarms, floods, marauders or worse.
