Pasta Carbonara twice, some Chicken and Cheese Pasta dish, pizza at a hole in the wall but it was amazing. I had a hard time getting used to their bacon being soft and thick instead of how our is thin and crispy. I had this hero type sandwich that was sliced salami, butter, and pickles.

The locals were really pleasant, I didn't run into one rude person. In fact there were a few times I bumped into people on the subway or the escalators and they were the ones who apologized before I could. They were very willing to help with directions and stuff like that too. So hats off to the French people for being nice.
There were a ton of scumbags hanging outside of the train station, a lot of pickpocket warnings too.

Paris is still one of the most overrated places I've ever been too.

Not for me. I loved Paris both times I've been. Amazing food. Museums are world class. I love looking at old churches though I get that's not for everyone. Versailles and Montmartre are incredible.

I was only 23 when i visited Paris so maybe I was immature. The architecture was cool af. I will likely go back one day and have to revise my opinion. I know my wife is super mad I experienced Paris without her lol.

I only go where I can drive. For some reason they won't let me drive the plane. Think I would do ok.
