Enjoying Parisian Life On a Sunny Day

Just a slice of Parisian life (vie parisienne). Soaking in the paris atmosphere on a sunny winter's day in the 6th arrondissement.
Streets are lined with a variety of artisan shops selling beautiful patisseries, bread, seafood and goods.
Every time I go back to Paris I am always amazed by the diversity of shops packed into one street and the 'joie de vivre' that Parisian's have so effortlessly perfected. This is especially noticiable around the rive gauche (left bank) arrondissement.
This video provides a glimpse of the St Germains des Pres and the Montparnasse area. The boulevard is fantastic for bistrot and seafood and St Germain is perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon stroll and enjoying un cafe on the terrace while watching the world go by.

strange request: I would like to see more footage of you communicating/ordering food in french

[@indianfyre]

Please keep doing these! Love seeing the slice of life in Paris

[@catfish4782]

Great video. It’s nice walking around the streets of Paris with you. So much to see and appreciate. Merci👍👍👍

[@JasonBarden]

Brings back fond memories. Merci Stephane!

[@MrMase12]

Beautiful Paris. I was there in 2015 and I miss it everyday since.

[@mendinghoop]

This made my morning. You really captured the simple elegant essence of Paris! I can’t wait to go back.Thanks Stephane, loving the transition into vlogging.

[@FrenchCookingAcademy]

thanks for that glad you like the video but i will still do cooking too i just need to get back to having a kitchen at hand

[@WavyCurlyGina]

Can't wait to go back next year. Paris was incredible ❤

So beautiful. It's been too many years since I was in Paris. I didn't realize how much I missed France until now. Thank you Stephane.

[@alanvonau278]

Bonjour Stéphane, merci de partager avec nous des scènes de rue parisiennes. J'aime surtout le plateau de fruits de mer à 5:43.

[@johnasumaa8644]

Great video. It is unlikely I will ever get to France, but at least you help me enjoy it vicariously. Merci.

[@EzekielDeLaCroix]

The low point of view makes you feel like a kid experiencing Paris. Kinda gives it a sort of Disney "magic".

[@emilyhart360]

Thank you, Stephane! It is good to see you leaving Paris. I think, if I am not too biased, that the boulangeries were better outside of Paris. As we travelled the countryside, we found so many small towns with the most amazing pastries and traditional baguettes. Enjoy your travels.

Begins at St. Germain, been there many times and have seen the same Jazz band playing. Love this city

Stood outside that seafood place in 2012 when going to a crepe house near Edgar Quinet metro. On the day we walked past an Aston Martin convertible was parked illegally, and when we came back it was still there, but not a parking sticker in site! God love Paris!!

Je l'adore, Stephane. I used to take a morning figure painting class at the art academy Grande Chaumerie and passed La Bar a Huitres each week; then, after class a lunch or drinks at Rotonde. Le Select, a block away, was another favorite place for a nice meal or apreo en terrace. Every time I return, I try to stay close to Blvd. Montparnasse. Thanks again for good memories!

my pleasure 🙂

Here within 44 Seconds! Greetings from Ireland Stephane! Come to Ireland… we have such delights to show you … that sounded like Hellraiser!

[@deg00gleurself91]

Come to Ireland and enjoy it's tremendous culture and people, before it is utterly destroyed by unrequested mass migrant immigration. So so sad.

[@_Odin_]

@@deg00gleurself91 Culture is fluid. Constantly changing and evolving. Is that a positive thing or negative thing, depends on the person's outlook on life. Fusion in food for example? Evolution of recipes. Name a developed world culture that has never changed. What culture is the same as it was 50 years ago? Amish?. We are norse gaels/ viking celts.

[@deg00gleurself91]

@@_Odin_ changing is good as all things do but in general they adapt to the improvements in society However beheadings, child brides, fgm, sharia and the constant never ending violence are not cultural changes anyone should ever want.

[@_Odin_]

@@deg00gleurself91 Seriously though… everyone is entitled to an opinion. But why do you feel the need to push it on a youtube video about cooking? No offence, I respect your opinion, I don't have to agree with it. reddit.com/r/worldnews might be the place for you, but I can tell you, this isn't the place.

[@deg00gleurself91]

@@_Odin_ I commented because Paris, in the video looked like the old Paris, the Paris I so loved, Paris today I have found to be much different and for one profound and fatal reason. I wish it were merely my opinion however reality is a very stern teacher. The romance of that city lost it's luster with the sound of rampant AK 47 gun fire. As I said, sad, sad, sad.

Just like the French did in Africa huh

[@andila716]

@GlobalVortex what African? North ? South? Because, how could I say, north already had a civilisation, and I don't even talk about the medicine that was imported from the north, even the fruit and vegetables was imported because they was good for health and north African knew that. I don't even talk about science huh . A nation is attacking another, talking their land, killing woman and child for more than 160 years. They're destroying the culture, the knowledge, they cut border without even know who is who, who live with who, creating conflict and home loss, creating confusion. For people who, remember, didn't ask anything. What's make you better than Muslim? Just like them, it's victimisation again. They didn't want you either. Now you're crying on the bed you made. Europe created a world that is killing the planet, killing people and culture. And they call that civilisation. Some people understand that and begin to live in ecological farm and all to protect the planet , strange, it looks like how people lived before all these invasion... oh right, it's savage and uncivisated only when it's non European who does that.

[@andila716]

@GlobalVortex you guys love treating other of inferior culture and iq, but still love going in vacation in the country you destroyed for century, buying ethnic clothes jewel and decoration, eating foreign food, making oriental movies and song, orientalism is not dead, just like colonisation. People talking like you are the reason why young white people are taking for racist even thought they try to help and understand the situation.

yes i am moving south so will see what i can find or do there visiting family so should be good

Quick question that I hope someone can answer: I plan to be in Paris around late July, will it be cold?

[@platonicdescartes]

Hopefully you will hit Leon now that you are heading out of Paris. It's the only other place in France that rivals for the food capital. Monsieur Paul is dead now, but he left quite the legacy. Still, these videos really made me miss Paris, which I haven't been back to since 2000.

Not sure what you mean by "vintage market", but the Aligre Market in the 12th arr. is wonderful and famous, especially on Sundays. The Bastille market has everything (Stephane's video on that is perfect). There is a All Natural food Market on Blvd Raspail, I believe on Sundays.
