What should I try to go see that wouldnt be on the normal itenerary?
Heh. You got me with the countdown.

I would look for:

- Burned-out vehicles. In certain suburbs of Paris, the ethnic minorities take to burning cars as a hobby. You probably won't go there, but you might travel through it.

- Habits of the middle and lower classes - metropolitan and non-metropolitan. Sure, check out the big touristy things that must be seen, but I'd just observe the culture too. Try to figure out how people behave differently than they behave in my world. Try to figure out why.

- I would go to where the people shop, not to where the tourists shop, to see how that is.
