France
patrickl:
Hey cool that your trip in France went well and most importantly that you improved your French speaking skills.
I went to France a lot on vacation (and even for work). The Dutch have a saying that goes something like "France is great, only trouble is that the french live there". Never stopped me enjoying myself there either though. Guess it is what you make of it.

i work in Paris for 4 years, i was a chef on the 2nd floor of the eiffel tower (restaurant Jules Vernes) and 1/2 of our clientel was American. i add the chance to talk to many american pepople during that time and i have to say they all enjoy there stay ...
and most of them where there before, and was not they first vacation ...
In fact, i never met so many pepole from the U.S in my life, while i was in Paris :)
I live most of my life in a small town of France, and i have to say, France country side is much better compare to Paris :P.

Are you french yourself? You sound french at least.
I'm sorry to say, but I don't think you can trust Americans if they say they enjoy something directly to the people who are involved in the "something". They are extremely polite and will usually say it's the greatest "something" they ever enjoyed even if they hate it.

I was born and raised in France. I live in the U.S (8 Years :applaud:) already ...
Well American Tourism is very strong in France, (japanese) too ;D
i have met so many people, and for most of them, it was not there first vacation. They sims to know a lot about the culture ect...
so if they dont like and if they pretend they like it, why they still go back ???
