There are many times I have heard people from the US say things like; aren’t the French “less friendly” than other Europeans? This is the 5th time I have traveled to France and I have never felt that way. I think the French are kind and friendly but they are “less tolerant” of Americans that come here and say things like;
Why don’t all of the French speak English? Or;
Why do the French use the wrong electrical outlets? Etc.. When I travel I try to be very respectful of other countries and cultures. I try to learn about them before I go and try to blend in. No matter where I go I believe;
The more we are different, the more we are the same.
People are as nice to you as you are to them, no mater the country. Be kind and friendly and people will respond in kind.
