And I'm French... but no parisian, I'm from the South-west from France, and I sometimes feel like a stranger in my own capital city ^^ i let you imagine how they look (and sometimes laugh)at us when thez hear our accent... I couldn't bear it a few years ago. Now I think Parisians are also part of the charm of this city. You just have to be aware of who they are... and maybe consider them as monuments x) admire the way they always look in a hurry, as you admire the Eiffel Tower! I love doing it. Now, in fact, I think I just love them. I hope you'll come back in Paris, to have a better feeling... At least, come in the south-west, we're nice and the sun is there 365 days/year :P Hey!

Instead of being planned in squares, the city is laid out in concentric localities called arrondissements. Each arrondissement is it’s own locality and people refer to them with numbers.

But oh yeah, the croissants: all the pastries are worth the trip to Paris no matter what language they speak or whatever their behavior might be over there! ;) That’s my whole point: Parisians complaint that there are way too many tourists “invading” their city, but let’s face it, tourism is a major chuck of their economy, so they should be somehow grateful, not the opposite!

As for the tourists in Paris, I found some of them so annoying like the ones in Amsterdam. I met few French people during my last visit in Paris and they are very specific people, not very into tourists :). They never spoke English to us, they complained about Paris being too busy with tours and holiday makers :) Well, that's Paris! I am glad you had a nice walk. I miss croissants a lot!!
