Getting off the Eurostar at Gare du Nord, I had a few hours to walk around and get to Gare de Lyon to meet my friend. I essentially walked south on Blvd de Magenta towards Canal St. Martin. I like going to cute unique places to explore the city. All places I mention are places I would highly recommend going to.
Canal St. Martin: Sit along the canal for a mini picnic!
Antoine & Lili: consists of 3 super cute shops selling clothing, children's toys and home goods. Great for families to go to.
Artazart Design Bookstore: Such a dainty bookstore! It's been there for years, and sells unique books.
Du Pain et des Idées: Traditional boulangerie with a variety of baked goods to choose from. How could a carb-addict like me resist this?
Merci: An adorable shop that sells everything from kitchenware to clothes with a cafe attached.
Ladurée - Madeleine (Original) : Their merchandise is just exquisite, and of course you have to try some of their famous macarons, I recommend the rose flavour, I'm still reminiscing its scent.
Our adorable Airbnb (3rd Arr.): This was probably a maid's room transformed into a studio-esque living space. It's just like something I'd like to live in if I was living by myself!
Dinner: Baguette avec du fromage (so French :P)
