First class: 3 rules to be Parisian
The N.1 rule: one friend and a terrace
Go in a terasse or a rooftop, (it must be outside) with your good friend and order a long coffee, a "noisette" or any other drink you like. Then enjoy talking about your latest trouble and challenges openly, wether it about in love or about work. Parisians love to gossip or share personnal details of their lives to create bonds.
The N.2 rule: Find your "QG"
Find your "QG" as quartier général (aka headquarter), the spot that you will consider slightly underground and cool to go, but it must be a place not too crowdy or touristy to feel special. You may have 3-5 hot spots, one restaurant for casual diners, one restaurant for brunches, one bar for the chill night with friends etc.. and it needs to be cute.
N.3 Rule: Drink, friends & let loose
French people can complain easily or share their problems, even sometimes with strangers. The way they escape their problems is by having 2,3,or 4 drinks in good company at one of their "QG". Wine, good food, and friends are the best combo to relax. Alcohol is not seen negatively in France, it is common to feel slightly drunk to release the pressure and feel the joy of passionate conversations.
