The problem is that strangers think there's only Paris in France.
I'm french and I could'nt live in Paris. People from Paris are often arrogants, the city always rainy, nobody never smile.
I prefer smallest cities like Nantes, Rennes or Toulouse. Very differents minds and a lot of students.

France is not the better place to be but it's a nice place to live and we have free health cares. Hope it'll be the same for american people.

Sorry for my awful english.
