What a unique way to experience Paris!
Your approach to allowing yourself moments of "ordinary" life, rather than cramming every day with sightseeing, really brings a refreshing perspective to travel.
It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of a place as iconic as Paris, but those slower, quieter experiences you described paint a fuller picture of what it might actually feel like to live there.
This balance of savoring both the magic and the mundane truly makes your experience relatable and inspiring.
