France

Just returned home from little over a week on the road with my wife and three kids. Majority of vacation was spent in Normandie, though it turns out travelling with young children is horrible so the Loire part of the trip had to be scratched and we went home directly after Normandie.

I spent three summers as a teenager (92,95,98) in France with my family in a camper car, and I'm in love with your country. I am still, despite my 7 year old's best attempts at ruining the experience.

I love how drivers are 100x more sensible than in Belgium or Germany.

I love the incredible variety in food at your grocery stores, though you might be using a LITTLE too much sugar in your food industry.

I love how friendly everyone is! Especially when I try with a careful "Bonjour madame, parlez-vous anglais?" and I get a negative response you still try with the English you DO know as I struggle past a quick "pas de problème". This does NOT happen in Germany!

I LOVE baguettes! I could probably eat baguette and drink red wine for the rest of my life. It does not taste same here in Sweden, the difference is massive.

A few questions remain though...
