Not a tourist hub, but that’s the point I think. I love this leafy “frenchy French” arr. There are countless magical corners and vibrant urban landscapes to discover. In a city with such intense density, there are few better places to call home. It’s calm, clean, and very safe. I always send mid stay visitors (1-4 months or longer) to the 14/15 because you actually get a taste of local France. And it’s delicious. ❤

Not bad!…But it could be better if it’s also filmed some good and tasty places to eat during this kind of walking tour, instead of just the views. You know, because it’s Paris, the world-famous city known for its food.

Good idea. But the idea for this series is just long walks. Lots of good food in my other videos :)

Tour Montparnasse is repulsive, it's an eyesore

That’s why you go to the top for the view :)
