When you at multicultural couple, do you mean bi/multi racial? Either way, it's a hot topic in France right now.
Can you say more about this? We're a multiracial family planning on visiting Paris next year, with young kids.
My God, there are way more multiracial couples in the streets of Paris than anywhere in an American city!
PP here who asked the question. I wonder whether the reaction would be any different for an Arab/African couple. I'm actually not Arab, but have been mistaken for North African before during our last trip to Paris (many years ago). Spouse is from a sub-Saharan African country. Couple of us in our family have Arabic names. Traveling with young kids this time so just wanted to ask the French PP.
Whoops, left out this info the first time (bolded).

Really? Paris is like London, very diverse, multi-racial and multi-cultural. We are a multi-racial family going to France once or twice a year on vacation in the South of France and no one blinks an eye either. Very different from what we have experienced here in the US...
This !
I am a Black woman and dated a white European man for a long time. Nobody blinked at the sight of us in France, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, while we got stared at a lot in the US, especially in NYC, which you would think is a multicultural, cosmopolitan city !
