    `[
    

    You can remap it if you’d like as well:

    nnoremap p p`[
    nnoremap P P`[
    

    ` jumps to a mark, and [ marks the location of the “first character of the previously changed or yanked text”.

    As for going back to where you were after pasting, well, it’s the unsurprising `].

    If you ever have a similar problem, you can always check out which marks exist with :marks. Also, you might want to look at :help `[ for more details.
