CIAO·PARIS
One of 13 Paris types
The Neighbourhood Regular
Four hundred metres and a full life.
You have a café, a bar and a bakery within three streets, and the people behind each counter know your order. Your Paris is small on purpose.
What they actually do
- Greets the staff by name
- Walks everywhere within ten minutes
- Sends visitors elsewhere with confidence
The contradiction
You know your bakery's holiday dates better than your own.
A typical route
- Your café
- your bar
- your bakery, all on the same three streets
Where they go
Three places from the carnet, picked by this type's two leanings: Local counts double, Foodie once.
- 6e · Park · FreeJardin du LuxembourgCarry one of the green metal chairs to the long basin of the Medici fountain and sit under the plane trees.
- 13e · Venue · Under 15 €Piscine de la Butte-aux-CaillesSwim in the 1924 indoor hall under its concrete arches, then go outside to the Nordic pool, heated and open all year.
- 20e · Venue · Under 15 €Piscine Georges-VallereySwim lengths in the 50-metre pool built for the 1924 Olympics, where Johnny Weissmuller won gold, under a roof that can open.
Who they get on with
Two of them in one battle: 83% on average.
Averaged over every way the quiz can produce both types, scored exactly as a real battle is.
