Nepali singles in France.
From the Nepali Fair in the Bois de Vincennes to a quiet coffee in Paris.
Most Nepalis in France live in Paris and the wider Île-de-France region, with another community in Marseille. Life here usually happens in French, so finding someone who shares your festivals, food and language can take time. The Nepali Fair in the Bois de Vincennes and community events bring people together a few times a year; Kismat helps between them. You pick an intent first, and people who picked the same come first.

Paris
A lake with islands and boats in the park that hosts the Nepali Fair, close to the Grande Pagode, calm for a long walk together.
Musée Guimet
Paris
France's national museum of Asian arts has a Himalayan section with sculptures and paintings from the Kathmandu Valley, an easy conversation starter.
Canal Saint-Martin

Footbridges, quays and small cafés make this an informal place to meet and talk without the crowds of the big sights.
Parc des Buttes-Chaumont
Paris
Hills, a lake and a temple on a cliff, with lawns where people picnic on warm evenings.
Vieux-Port
Marseille
The old harbour is everyone's meeting point in Marseille, with cafés on the quays and boats leaving for the islands.

The basilica on its hill has the widest view over Marseille and the sea, worth the climb for a sunset visit.
