I have to be honest with you: I don't like winter. I love living in Paris but winter in Paris is my least favorite season.

Yeah, yeah, I get it: you can't have all those wonderful spring, summer and autumnal days without winter. It's a bit like being in a relationship; you have the dark days with the brilliant ones.

But -- OK -- it's still Paris. It's not exactly a HARDSHIP to experience winter in Paris. Still so much to do, and the city is still great to be in.

Here's some of the ways I survive winter in Paris.
