I am putting aside all the diplomatic words and expressions I know and have used in the past to come loud and clear. In one hand, I appreciate and love the life of art, culture and politics in France...it feels real. The French have mastered the beauty of living, eating, bref, of enjoying the simple pleasures that the earth has to offer. On the other hand, I have been faced with the turtle-like speed of various administrative venues.
The verdict, please? Well, I have fully incorporated and rightfully use a new word in my French vocabulary: A vos marques! Prêts! Râlez!
