personality
The French people are really nice and helpful. They are open and are not shy.
Before coming to France we thougth that most of the people could speak English. Only few people speak English, but we can communicate by using gestures and body language. Before we met the french people we thought they were very reserved and feminin, but when we met them they were very similar to us, because they can be very loud , and they listen to music everywhere. While we were in France we also noticed the food we eat have a lot of sugar but it taste very good. The school is very different from ours, for example we noticed something that was very strange for us and that was the church at the school because in our school we don't have our own church. we also found out the weather can be very cold, more than we expected.
