Cast of Characters....Decoding the populous of Paris

Paris is literally all the people of 5^th Avenue from New York City dropped into a radial designed city. Lose the New Yorker attitude and pick up a HUGE dose of arrogance. Mix that with a loathing for President Bush with this week’s latest fashion and baguette in hand…and viola, you have your typical Parisian.

There is certainly no cast of characters like there was in Italy for me but people watching is just as fun. I have been truly amused by the men here. They are so forward and delighted to compliment a woman any chance they can get even when is hand in hand with her boyfriend. All I can say is “thank God” that ‘fiancé’ is a French word…it has certainly gotten me out of uncomfortable situation with several men, though they manage to still be forward.
