Why so French???

Those of you who know me know that I’m very partial to France and the French in general.  But I’m not sure if anyone really knows why.

  • First off, I’m very partial to the European style of living.  They take time to enjoy the things that are important, really important.
  • The cuisine is incredible!  I especially love Vietnamese food where you can taste the influences of the French.
  • The language, the sound of it, is intoxicating.
  • On my first trip to the Caribbean, some of our favorite spots were French.
  • I was very fortunate to take my first trip to Paris during World Cup!
  • What else is there to say, the country itself is beautiful.
  • Monaco GP, Cannes, Tour de France!!!

Don’t get me wrong, America is great, beautiful and free!  There is as much to love in this country as any other.  I just identify and like the French and their culture.  That’s the great thing about being American, I’m allowed to do that.  🙂
