I simply love the way everyone takes time to smile and say 'bonjour' wherever you go. We have been made to feel so welcome here and I think that as long as we try our best with the language and try to accept some of the things we find difficult to understand (like the bureaucracy!) the French in turn will try to help us as much as they can. Well, that has been my experience so far!Rozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05374274472419508292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8895089495404449507.post-6124651315243889142013-02-02T14:15:09.492+01:002013-02-02T14:15:09.492+01:00Hi Roz - agree with Donna.

In addition I have to say that I also love the culture of respect and politeness that the french have, they treat each other and us foreigners well and it's a really nice way to interact with each other. All these things put together make France a really great place to live.Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05845648391502941238noreply@blogger.com
