CYF 141 — Flâner dans Paris : les grands magasins, le Printemps et les Galeries Lafayette — mercredi 21 septembre 2022

Flâner is typically a Parisian activity. You just let yourself drift from a place to another. You can wander while you visit the Grands magasins, for example. This is what we did my friend Marilyne and I at the Printemps and at the Galeries Lafayette. These two Grands magasins are close to the Opéra Garnier and to the Gare Saint-Lazare. They were both created in the XIXth century, the Printemps first, then a few years later the Galeries Lafayette. What is the difference between these two department shops? This what you are going to hear in today’s episode. 
In the notes that go with the transcript, I will highlight for you some typical expressions and tell you in a few words how those stores were created.
