I was wondering what some of those cultural differences are. In Spain, for me, the difficult things have been the noise, the atrocious, rude, and dangerous driving, and that so few of the reasonable laws they have are enforced at all. I never thought I would become a person who would say they were for law and order!

Cheers,

[quote=Bevdeforges;26290]France is a tough country for foreigners, particularly anglophones (or as they call us here, "anglo-saxons"). There are lots of great things here (especially in the eating and drinking department), but there are cultural differences that will drive you absolutely insane.
