Paris: the best sights in the Latin Quarter

[@teodelfuego]

I hope it’s not disrespectful to comment that this tour guide is amazingly beautiful and very engaging with a wealth of information

[@amusingaida]

Glad you found the info useful

[@FredHolmeswriter]

There are lots of travel videos out there, but none with your playful sense of humor. Well done.

[@amusingaida]

That's a cool comment! Thanks for that!

[@PeterPenguin77]

Once again I am transfixed with fascination at the amazing history you present with such charm. I never heard about those museums or the oldest restaurant frequented by Napoleon! Bravo!

[@amusingaida]

Great -- hopefully some things for you to see next time you visit Paris! Honestly, the city has so many museums it's not possible to see them all...

Loved your opening reference to Woody Allen's movie "Midnight in Paris". I'm in Paris for a month and so glad, I found your video as I'm staying in the Latin Quarter and you have literally been my tour guide :)...amazing video...thank you!

[@amusingaida]

That's great, that this little video has been able to give you some pointers. Makes me happy!

MashAllah beautiful place❤

[@amusingaida]

It really is!

[@lavinder11]

I'm here in Paris now and am looking for a new place to live. The 5th seems like a good mix of what I like.

[@amusingaida]

The 5th is a great place to live, has been for a while. The great thing about a compact yet dense city like Paris, with its mix of arrondissements and historic legacies in each, is that you can find an area that reflects your interests, ties and the convenience you'll want for your work or leisure. It never ceases to fascinate. Good luck with the (inevitably) tough search for an apartment!

[@DixonDixon65]

Loved tjis!!!

[@mundorueda9402]

Enjoyed the video very much because of your bubbly personality. You are a jewel! I will stay at the Latin Quarter in October 2023.

That's lovely to hear. Really, that buoys me and gives me more energy for my next videos. Thanks so much.

[@philip5899]

You’re funny !!! I love the Latin quarter. I had coffee and ice cream from the coffee shop just in the corner of the square with my daughter in March last year and we sat on those little concrete squares !!!

[@amusingaida]

A lovely little spot. I hope you guys get back there soon

[@Ale_goria]

You convenced me with the sword jajaj beautiful video!

Muchas gracias (¡tambien por ver hasta la espada!)

[@MrDigitalman78]

You know Aida, the city of Montréal in Canada 🇨🇦 is a North American Paris duplicate, and a French speaking city, has a Latin quarter as well. But the real one in Paris France 🇫🇷 is the real deal

[@amusingaida]

You know, I've not yet visited Canada. But I've heard good things about the Montréal jazz festival. Maybe one day.....

[@unodosblanco]

T'est formidable ! Merci !

Gracias, unodosblanco. Glad you enjoyed the video!

I do want to sit there and wait for the past to come pick me up!

If only it were like that! (Though walking around Paris you do think sometimes that the past lives on...)

[@debisusan4338]

Lovely video! Thanks

Many thanks Debi Susan. I have a new one coming in a few days that took me a LOT longer to do than expected

[@luc3884]

Paris a été très abimée par Delanoe et encore plus par Hidalgo, mais les quartiers anciens restent absolument fabuleux.

[@amusingaida]

@@luc3884 bon, c'est une opinion. Sans entrer dans la politique de chaque maire, j'apprécie bien une ville livrée aux vélos.

[@luc3884]

@@amusingaida Ca je comprends, mais l'action de Hidalgo va bien au delà de la simple installation pour le vélo. Félicitations pour vos vidéos, c'est vraiment du beau travail.

You know, I spent years under the Pantheon in the sixties. I was a student in the great boarding school "Lycée Louis-le-Grand", rue Saint Jacques, then I became a student at the Sorbonne (Maths, Physics and other hard things) . I could meet Nobel prizes in physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Jean Paul Sartre, Jean Seberg, ASO. I used to spend hours walking in those streets. The buses were still oldish, with a nice platform (Search "french parisian bus 1965"). The teenage ladies used to wear miniskirt. It was terribly romantic to "flirt" in the "jardin du Luxembourg". A very good place to test my abilities in foreign languages...

[@amusingaida]

It sounds like you have fond memories

[@remydude2424]

Un excellent disquaire spécialisé jazz (vinyles) en face des Arènes de Lutèce.

J'imagine ! Pas mal de petites boutiques intéressantes par là

[@theressamurphy2996]

Sorry Josephine Baker was not a black panther. The Black Panthers group started in 1966 in the USA. I do like your videos.

[@amusingaida]

Historically, you are no doubt correct. No need to apologise for that. (That said, the point you mentioned was nowhere in my video.)

[@he-edd-l3784]

I tried to hear again the video with great attention. Sorry, but Aida never said "Josephine was a black panther".

[@rundanerun]

Your videos are both entertaining and informative. I decided to travel to Paris in May! Keep up the good work

[@amusingaida]

Great - I'm sure you'll have a great trip. May in Paris is wonderful

Try pronouncing those in English (both UK and US), and French, and see whether the 'home' accent is well understood. Hugo I pronounce the French way, in French, but may vary it in English depending on the listener. Communication is about the effective transmission of meaning.

Fun video! Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign langua

[@ysgramornorris2452]

4:40 Oh, if you're into ramen, there's the BEST ramen restaurant in Paris close to Odéon! Check out the Kodawari, but you better come more than half an hour before opening time.

Now that's a good tip, thanks

Well done! A Midnight in Paris fan?

[@mundorueda9402]

I have been watching and enjoying a lot of your interesting videos lately and I often wondered "she looks Hispanic" and I was right. I see you with a lot of Frida Kahlo and Maria Felix in you: cultured, adventurous, arty, funny, beautiful, multiple/intriguing personalities and not give a darn when you express yourself to others. You replied to me when I visited Paris in October 2023 and I appreciated it. Guess what? I am coming back for a whole month in September 2024 and stay again in the Latin Quarter. I can hardly wait. I will look for you (dreaming) when I walk the streets of Paris or dance by the Seine river next to Pont de Sully. I am Mexican, American and an Argentinian older senior because I danced tango in Buenos Aires for 20 years. I've also danced salsa all of my life. I wish you continued success.

[@amusingaida]

Well, thanks (I think) for being compared to some big artists. If you're making another trip to France you must really be under the country's spell. For open-air dancing in warmer months, you are right: the Arènes on the riverbank near the Pont Sully are excellent. Also sometimes in Place de la République -- and try El Diabolito (in rue Saint-Sebastien in the 11th arrondissement)

[@waleedsayed522]

I never had the ideal of visting Paris, france but your content have change my mentality

Great job!! Looking forward to our next trip to Paris already...

[@LondonEE16]

I just discovered and subscribed to your channel. You really get the balance right: informative, witty and with a smattering of thoughtful opinions. I've watched a number of people do travelogues of France and specifically Paris, and sometimes find them annoying when people don't know what they are talking about and don't bother to look it up before making their video. So, your content is a really refreshing change. Also, who does your camera work? And do you do your own editing or do you have help. You are really professional. Thanks for all the great work.

[@amusingaida]

Wow, that's a lovely comment, one that makes me want to get out and do more videos. I have seen a few other videos also on France. It's great that each creator has their own approach, their own personality, as they do their thing. I just do mine and hope it's both informative and entertaining...
