I thought that I should take a minute to help crush the nasty stereotype about the French people being snobs. Since we first arrived in France, 99% of the people have been wonderful, helpful and genuine. You are guaranteed to come across rude people anywhere you go, but Americans seem to think that the French hate us. I have been here for two months and not one person has scowled at me or treated me differently because I am American. At any point that I needed help, it was easy to find, and they are more than happy to help me along with my French. They seem to like it actually.
I need to say it one more time, read it and pass it on. The French people are nice and do not hate Americans! That is all.
