They focused on the European point of view of our cafebabel.com journalists and comments of the visitors.
The journalists are now preparing the articles for our Paris on the ground dossier which you will find in 2008 in our City Pages.
Next city to explore will be ... Strasbourg from January 31 - February 03 2008!
This project has been funded with support from the European Commission.
