Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

Flâneur (masculine)/flâneuse (feminine) means "stroller", "lounger", "saunterer" or "loafer" in French. Flânerie is the act of strolling, with all of its accompanying associations. Flâneur originally derives from the Old Norse verb flana, which means "to wander with no purpose".
