I spent 3 weeks in France 5 years ago. It was a nice trip. I got to see and do a lot but I don’t want to go back. I was so homesick and stayed lost. Americans tend to set things up in straight lines and squares. Things tend to go in spirals there. If not for the people in the group, I couldnot navigate anywhere or use the subway system alone. I enjoyed the food and the people very much. Fortunately, I studied some French before I went. I also kept a translation book with me. It helped me get out of some scrapes when I did venture out alone. I loved Nice the most. Beautiful place with a small town feel. Paris was too much for me but I’m not much for city life anyhow.
