研究成果概要
As I was able to spend a full six weeks working on the project, in the end I interviewed 21 new people in Paris including 5 couples, and 17 re-interviews, including 2 couples.

The interviews took place in the people's residences, cafés, my home or their offices. I was able to expand the survey to more people who work in less lucrative professions, such as teacher or pilates instructor.  In addition, I was able to talk with some people who were of migrant background, including Muslim families.  These interviews were particularly interesting, because their perceptions of the pandemic and their handling of it were somewhat different from those of others, and I felt that their position in French society affected their everyday practices considerably.

As there has been no time yet to analyze my findings, I can only give impressions these interviews left with me.  I will mention these below: 
--level of income affected choices of urban or countryside living during the pandemic.
-- there were varying levels of trust in the government's policies on the pandemic. 
-- parents felt that the educations of their children were compromised due to the pandemic. In particular they referred to early elementary school children and adolescents who were preparing for college entrance.
-- as a result of the pandemic, remote work has been well entrenched in France, and welcomed heartily by many people.
--Many felt that they cherished the time spent with family during lockdowns.
