To me France is just a gateway to sunny Spain.
Just kidding. I've been a couple of times to Paris, and i think it's the most beautiful city i've ever seen. It's history is great, so i tried to visit as many historical places as possible.
The nightlife in Paris is also something else. I recommend everyone who ever visits Paris to go see the show in the Moulin Rouge. It's expensive, but worth it.
I've also spent some time in the south, a little place called Cap D'agde. I was only a kid back then, but i still remember it well, because it was a nudist resort. My mom never told me we were going to a nudist resort, cause i probably wouldn't have come with em. Strangely enough i was the first one running around naked. It was fun, but weird.
Also, imo France has the greatest cartoonists in the world. Not just Asterix, but also comics like Lucky Luke, Blueberry, Redbeard, etc. I think heir publishers are Dupuis, Oberon, and Dargaux. They are the best.
And of course the French kitchen, it's exellent. I love escargots, although eating them can cause some trouble now and then, when you have a hard time pulling them out of the shells.
And wine ? Well... i'm not an expert, but it's alcohol, and when t comes to alcohol, i'm not picky. You name it, i drink it.
Edit: forgot about French movies. I'm not too crazy about those, although there are quite a few good actors coming from France. But there was noone like Louis de funes, he cracked me up. I would cancel any appointments i have for one of his movies. And whenever Sophie Marceau is in a movie, i'll be watching. Not that i think she's such a great actress.
