What you can always do in a French city

So I've been in France for over a week now and I've spent time in 3 cities. Now there are big differences, but also several similarities between these towns.. Some of these things will seem obvious, but this is the truth as far as I can tell so far from my time in France:

Top 4 things you can always do in a French city (depending on the time of day)
1. Go to the boulangerie and buy a baguette or croissant- easy enough, these places are everywhere, it's up to you to see which ones are better, or to try different breads. I eat normally the demi, the half size, since it's better for one person.

2.Have a drink or eat at a cafe- There are also tons of cafes, not just restaurants, but cafes or brasseries..sometimes you can only have a drink and you can't order any food, but rest assured these places will be around.

3.Go to the pharmacy- And we're not talking like CVS or Rite-Aid, these are places that are on all the streets, noted with a green cross..And they have just about every kind of cream or lotion that you could think of. When I bought sunscreen in Paris, the pharmacist was questioning me like it was a very serious purchase, very different than our idea of a pharmacy.

4.Get a haircut, as simple or as complex as you make it- So I got a haircut in Paris, and I think it took me longer deciding where to go than it did for the actually cut, but these places are not the average chain, there are tons and tons of places, some chains, some not. They are all over the place, and the prices can be anywhere from 10 or a little more to 30, 40 euro for a haircut.. Incredible!

That is what I've noticed in the cities I've been in, obviously there is much more to do than this, but there are the common things that I've seen.

Bon week-end
