That damn masculine/feminine thing, and then there's vousvoyage and tutoyage. Sheesh. Do you wanna know where some intersting spots are ? Or are you happy wandering around discovering what ever it is that you discover ? Last time I was there ... this past May ... I did something that will stay with me for the rest of my life. I was leaving the next day via eurostar for London (best way to travel between London and Paris IMO), and didn't want to pay another 75 - 100 euros just to sleep for 6 or 7 hours so I walked and walked and walked, through all the streets and neighbourhoods I know, from 6 p.m till 6 a.m. Paris at 4 am or 5 am, all alone on a street somewhere not too far from the centre (thank goodness Paris inside la peripherique is actaully quite geographyically /physically compact). Man, 12 hours of straight walking, with only a couple of beer stops at all night places (one of those beers cost me $12, yikes) was quite an experience. Enjoy, et n'oublie pas de cherchez la femme pendant que vous etes encore capable de passer du temps a Paris comme une invitee et non une enemie americaine.

Don't get that stressed out. Sometimes it's better to have a bit of free time than to have a full schedule. Cheers! Hilarious post. Don’t get that stressed out.
