Pease tell me they don't just pee in the corner anywhere in Paris! I'm dying to go there and I really don't want to watch someone taking a wiz. Lord!
Most buildings install a cast iron railing to block off anyone from stepping into inside corners. Give a Frenchman a corner - and he will declare it purposely & sufficiently private ....and take a wizz.....
a n y place, a n y time!
BTW- I have not been to every big city in the world - (a few I have visited: San Francisco, LA, San Diego, NYC, Boston, Denver, St Louis, Kansas City, Miami, Atlanta, London, Munich, Berlin, Barcelona, Hue & Saigon....) ....but, for me, Paris is the greatest city in the world. All I ever needed was a couple bucks in my pocket, good walking shoes and an interest in places and people......you will have the time of your life. No other place comes close.
