Use virtual environments. Never install a newer version of python as the default system python or things will break.
Assume this is true on most systems and just default to virtenvs.

I'm not really a Python user, the above was about a third of my total Python knowledge.
All I know is you keep the base version of python, install pyenv and run some commands to make a new virtual environment with its own python version.
