Paris is great! The people are cool. I speak french but with an accent and most of the people I'd stop to ask a question to would hear my accent and started speaking english with me! Everyone is very helpful, no one was rude. The city is very diverse. Lots of Italians, Greeks, Asians, Arabs and Africans.

See, that's the difference right there! Everyone I know who has been to France and CAN speak French is treated really nice, everyone I know who has been there and CAN'T speak French was treated like crap. It's like they have this automatic respect for people who speak the language. And I happen to understand it because I used to manage this Cory Everson gym (yes, ladies only gym-lol) and it was in an area that was like 30% hispanic and it used to piss me off when people would come in and expect me to speak spanish. The people I know who could not speak French told me that the people were rude when they expected them to speak english. At least, that's what I've been told. I've never been there and have no desire to go there ever. After all the back stabbing they have done to this country, they will never see one dollar of my money. They should worship us for what we did in WWII for them. How many soldiers did we lose to get teh Germans out of France? Anyways, that's my opinion. LOL

Tweet^damn t-man...i guess it was a good ideal not to take you along after all! that woulda been a buzz kill, lol.

Did your friends who can't speak French go there recently? American culture is huge in France. The French MTV station plays more American music videos than French music videos. Most of the TV shows are American shows, but dubbed in French. Almost everyone speaks English in France. Even waiters. If you get the opportunity to go I think you should go. Screw the political BS. I was born, have friend from there. There is even a French Alliance out here in Central FL that I meet up with once a month and no one talks trash about the US. Don't listen to the hype, go there and experience it for your self.

I don't know, maybe. They just never seen to side with the US on any phuking thing and it just makes me ill. Take a look at the Netherlands, you go there (this is second hand info of course) and they absolutely love Americans for what we did for them. But, you were just there so you would have the most current opinion and I trust your opinon.

Maybe one day, but if I was going to Europe I would have to go to Denmark first (family heritage on dad's side), then while there I would have to see Sweden and Findland just because they are right there. Then, my next desired place would be Italy, so much history there it's awesome and it's where my step father's family is from. Then, my next desired places are Scottland and Ireland (family heritage on mom's side). I guess after all those I might consider France. LOL, but only after I visit the others.

My friend is touring Europe for 3 months. He loves Holland and Denmark. Those are his favorite 2 places. My friend is a cheap ass and he thought Paris was too expensive so he bailed after 3 days there!!!
