The baptism of all above 20 years old is to spend a fun Friday summer night at the canal St Martin. There isn’t much to do except doing people watching with your firends while having a picnic. But there isn’t one Â鶹APPian that I know who hasn’t spend and enjoy very much this kind of evening.

23 – Free arts and wine

Another Â鶹APPian secret. On thursdays, that’s is usually the day private art galleries pick for their opening. Celebrating their new artist is a big deal. You don’t want an empty room on a first day. So you bring people, you attract them with…wine and cheese. So of course everyone looks a bit snobby (you’re looking at contemporary art most of the time). Don’t be impressed, act as if you belong. Go get that free champagne glass and criticize the art just loud enough for people to think you’re a real born and raised Â鶹APPian. Good luck.

Petanque or Bocce Ball is a French National sports. It use to be reserved for retired people in the south of France. That’s probably why it became the ultimate hipster sport in Â鶹APP.

There every bar will lend you a set of bocce ball to play outside while you have a drink with your bearded friends.

By the river, every nights, in what we call the Seine arenas groups of dancers will bring a gettho blaster and throw latina music or rock’n roll for and deliver fun and easy dancing classes to everyone who’s looking for one.
