If You're An Enneagram Type 4, Here Is The City You Should Move To
If moving to a new city is on your 2022 bucket list, you may be trying to find one that seems like the perfect fit. You may also be wondering how your Enneagram type is connected to where you should move, which is why we've found the ideal match for those Type Fours who aren't quite sure what they're looking for. Known as "The Individualist," (via Mind Body Green), Enneagram Type Fours are always searching for something to make them feel full. They despise the feeling of emptiness and wish to feel complete, which is why a city with lots to do would best suit them so they won't ever get bored. They are also solid friends due to their self-awareness and their zest for life, though they can be overly dramatic and therefore frustrating if forced to do something they don't want to do.
Moreover, Type Fours are known for being romantic and appreciative of beauty and self-expression (via Integrative 9). They are prone to bouts of melancholy and have a delicate nature, which means a fast-moving city may not be the best option. Overall, the creative nature of Type Four Enneagrams means they would really thrive in a city that would fulfill them rather than leaving them feeling unsatisfied.
Paris is one of the best cities for Enneagram Type Fours to visit
If you're an Enneagram Type Four, start packing and get your passport ready for Paris (via Her Campus). Alternatively known as the "city of love" and the "city of lights," you can express yourself artistically and romantically. If a day spent strolling around museums and galleries is your thing, you'll be able to do just that. Whether you make a beeline for the much-loved Louvre or head for some more independent sights, Paris is a haven for artistic souls.
As they are more sensitive than other types, Enneagram Type Fours are also known to be nostalgic. Paris is the perfect city to indulge your nostalgia, whether that's enjoying a coffee at a chic Parisian café or taking a long walk along the beautiful River Seine as the sun sets. If your scene is more smoky rooms and cocktails than famous paintings, embrace your wild side in the multitude of bars and clubs Paris contains. You can have the bartender whip up a delectable and intriguing on-the-spot cocktail for you at Bisou, or go for a slightly cheaper option at the renowned Candelaria (via Conde Nast Traveler).
It has a whole bunch of different things to see and try, perfect for impatient Type Fours
Paris is also a wonderful place to live due to its brilliant public transportation system, known as the Paris Metro. The first train runs from 5:30 a.m, whereas the last pulls into the station at 1 a.m, meaning you'll be able to get home easily even after enjoying a few evening drinks (via Civitatis Paris). It's also heaven if you're a foodie Enneagram Four, as Paris offers a range of restaurants and cafes for everyone from meat lovers to vegetarians.
Additionally, Type Four Enneagrams can turn any evening into one to remember if they're feeling in the right mood (via The Enneagram Institute), which is why Paris' many places to eat are so great. You can start off with croissants at a quaint alley spot, dress up for dinner in a restaurant overlooking the Eiffel Tower, and finish off with drinks at Petit Bain, a club-slash-music venue anchored on the Seine (via Time Out).
With so much to discover, Enneagram Fours will love that they can express themselves and let their dramatic side shine in Paris.
