We use Sony Alpha series cameras to film our videos. They are compact so you don’t look like a super tourist when you take great pictures and videos while you travel.

We use Manfrotto Tripods. They are compact, travel well, and honestly I would not use another tripod for my nice cameras.

Travel Plug that works in pretty much any country & has four USB ports. A must for any traveler.

I'm french and i approve this video! I have a few bonus tips for you from my perspective : 1 - Be overly polite. Don't be afraid to tell the waiter things like "c'était très bien merci" or say hello to everyone when entering a small shop. We value communication in shops and restaurants and even in the street so don't hesitate to talk with strangers. And when in doubt start sentences with an apology. 2 - Don't talk too much about how much you love Paris unless you're in Paris. 3 - If you go to Marseille check your pockets because every kid can be David Copperfield. 4 - Fancy places are very very snobby and embarrassing sometimes. Better avoid them unless you're rich, this isnt real France and this is where you'll find stereotypes about our rudeness. 5 - Regional peculiarities : North West has the most welcoming and warm people. In South East people yell and touch you all the time but don't be afraid (this is me) . South west food will blow your mind, you're not even mentally prepared for it. North east is multicultural and a great place to get contacts and continue your travels through Europe. Corsica is paradise but they hate everyone else. There's only trees and cows in the middle. Have fun if you come! 🇨🇵🇺🇲🥰

That is true that if you walk in any shop and start to speak english,salesperson will be rude with you. but if you say the magic word ."bonjour" everything will be better. And magically if you say "excuse me i don't speak french" , suddenly much more people will speak english.

@kawaibakaneko 7 лет назад

If you don't say "hello" or "bonjour" to us, we'll think you're an asshole who treats people like dogs, because in France you need to acknowledge the people, it's really disrespectful to not do it. Since you're rude (by not saying hello) we won't help you, we are proud after all

@tonydelat2322 6 лет назад

It happened to me when i first arrived in Paris i reached to the hotel and i arrived very early so my room was not ready. The hostess was french so i started speaking in french (my level is A1 or A2). I asked her if she could keep my luggage there at the hotel while i went to Musee d'Orsay and then i would do the check-in when i returned l.... at some point i ran out of french vocabulary and she wouldnt get me so I asked "ahmmm, do you speak english?" And she said "non".... "ok, ¿español?" "Non" so i managed to explain what i needed, went to the museum, returned 4 hrs later, the lady was there and sees me and goes "oh, it's you! Welcome back!" In english...... hahahahaha so a couple of times it happened ti me like this: some people do speak english but don't want to unless they see you making an effort in french and failing hehehehehe

@LeSarthois 6 лет назад

It's a bit more complex than that. About 20 years ago, French medias were all about how we French suck at English and that we should be able to speak it, etc... In the meantime, most English teachers we have are (were, hopefully) giving kids lists of words and phonemes to leanr, but never devoted many time to actually speak. Basically, about 15 years back, we learned how to read and write english, but not really how English sounds, and even less how to have a simple chatting in English. All the while being scolded for having an accent and bad pronunciation. So actually many French people DO know English, they are just extremely shameful about how poor and bad-sounding it is, so they prefer to pass as ignorant than to appears poorly educated.

@xRaphou 9 лет назад

When I watched the video I was expecting to disagree about all and get angry... but actually, no. Everything is true and nothing is disrespectful against my country, that's great. I'm glad to hear that french people are not that unfriendly. Good video.

I really want to stress your #11's point, YES France is not just Paris, there are so many places to go, so many different landscapes to see, sleeping volcanoes in Auvergne, cliffs of Bretagne, sunny beaches in La Cote d'Azur, rainy beaches in Normandie (we still love you guys up north!), Snowy mountains in Les Alpes... I could go on and on for hours, there's just too much to see!

***** I am a south american living in Australia and I find that your comment is just another generalisation. I've travelled a fair bit and I've seen Australians drunk doing inappropriate things too (A group of guys getting drunk in a flight to Bali, or like other English speakers reluctant to learn at least few words of the host country's language eg. Hi, thank you...). That doesn't mean that all Australians are like that just like not all Americans fit your criticism. By the way, I found the guy doing the video very receptive/aware of the French culture

@cooperwey 9 лет назад

jeylful I know it's a generalisation, I'm sure most Americans are not like what I said, it was just that the Americans I can remember were the ones I mentioned. I know Australians can be loud obnoxious idiots (especially in Bali it seems), but as you said most Australians aren't like that.

@Aryetis 8 лет назад

As a french, "France is more than Paris" ... YES !!! A hundred times yes !!! Asks locals outside of Paris, they will all tell you how rude parisians are compared to others, how the streets are dirty, how many pickpockets there is, etc... Only Parisians can deal with Paris. It's really nice to see someone wandering elsewhere than Paris And about the ammound of english speakers ... I guess it's kinda the same in every country, when you're a native english speaker you don't realise how much foreign language are important because english is "the international language" but everywhere else in the world it's just a foreign language, it's not a necessity. With that said, I'd say around 8/10 french understand basic english, and 1/2 are able to speak fluently (thank games/series/movies and piracy for that)

@Zuriki_ 8 лет назад

+RyuhasNERV I'm french too, I live in Paris, and I just want to say that Paris can look very rude when you don't know anybody, but the everyday life as a parisian is actually very nice, you always do a lot of things with your friends, you don't stop to discover new places every week, and you meet a lot of foreigners because it's an international city. So let's not stick to stereotypes about Paris, even thought some parisian are rude and some streets are dirty ;)

Les parents qui laissent leur gamins sans surveillance ça me choque aussi, c'est pas un truc français, c'est un truc de parent insouciants. Les français amicaux? ça dépend où et ça dépend qui comme partout, déjà qu'entre français y a pas beaucoup d'entraide. Des pickpockets ailleurs qu'à paris j'en ai jamais vu.

je suis moi Ah ouais t'habites où en province ? J'habite en Haute Savoie (Cluses) qui est un département riche et pourtant je retrouve les mêmes problèmes que décrits dans la vidéo après je viens d'un monde où français = surrender, vous ne vous lavez jamais, les filles ne se rasent pas et omelette du fromage. Du coup désolé si d'avoir confirmer ce qu'il raconte (depuis Paris mais il a visiter le sud aussi et je doute qu'il ne l'ai pas pris en considération dans sa vidéo) mais j'encourage vivement les étrangers à venir voir la vraie France. ps: Nous les enfants (surtout à Annecy) c'est normal qu'ils jouent dans le parc seuls, c'est un grand espace vert ou il fait bon vivre de profiter de la pelouse par de belles journées d'été, les parents ne sont jamais bien loin mais ils ne sont pas sur leur dos.

Je viens de haute Normandie mais je suis actuellement dans le 91 et je me rend ou je traverse Paris tous les jours pour aller bosser et y a pas plus de crotte de chiens sur les trottoirs de mon trajet que chez moi en Normandie. Ca arrive parce que t'as toujours des gens qui se foutent des autres mais ça reste assez rare. J'ai arrêté de fumer y a deux ans en passant à la cigarette électronique, et même si j'ai plus de nicotine j'ai le droit de vapoter uniquement là où les fumeurs ont le droit de fumer et vu le prix du tabac je doute qu'on soit les plus gros fumeurs d'Europe. Encore des clichés. Pour ce qui est des enfants qui jouent dans les parcs, évidemment, les américains aussi emmènent leurs enfants au parc et les laissent jouer mais c'est pas de ça qu'il parle dans la vidéo.

It is mandatory for any business (with employees) to have at least one closed day in a week, usually sunday, sometimes monday. Of course there are some exceptions defined by the law. It requires special authorization, or for it to be a necessity due to the nature of the business (hostel, restaurant, hospital...) Hope that was helpful! Nice video!

@PoeCommunicateATL 7 лет назад

Love this video because you are sharing your honest observations. I support a French person doing the same about the U.S.! Also, so glad you mentioned that French are polite. The "rude" stereotype is just wrong. Here's the deal: People in large cities are always rude when on the metro, rushing to work, haggled by tourists, panhandlers, cars honking at them, etc. I'm living in Crecy-la-Chapelle (suburban Paris) for three months right now. I lived in Chicago for seven years and a summer in New York and it was exactly the same. Nice people, one on one, rude folks trying to navigate the city. It's a function of big cities. Thanks for sharing!

I remembered French as a rude, bad and unpleasant people who only spoke neither English nor other language, only French. But since last vacation I have VERY GOOD memories from France, my opinion about French turned 180 degree and I could totally see the beauty of France. When you mentioned your favourite places in France - Mark; I thought I'd add at least three more places that RE AWESOME as well: Telepherique du Aguille du Midi, Vers Pont du Gard and Mt. St. Michel. And yes, boulangerie et patiserie are the heaven for those you enjoy tasting sth really good ;)

@edelahaye 8 лет назад

#1 : Very true. I hate smoke #2 : Pretty true, except the bartenders and waiters of big "cafés". Small ones far from the touristic tours are generally fine. #3 : Business hours can be strange for americans. But you would be more surprised in Elsass or Germany ! That said, some foodstores and bakeries are open 24/7 #4 : On small store, possibly, but on most of the shops, you just help yourself. There is no-one to help you or give any advice. #5 : The situation of dogs poos is evolving. 10 years ago and before, it was a complete nightmare. Now, say that half of the poos are picked up by the dog owners. It's the law. The problem is that some people don't respect the law and that the dogpoo watchers in a city like Paris are 10 or 20 for 5 millions of dogs ... See the picture ? In addition, police officers, just don't care ... They probably have bigger fishes to fry ... #6 : Topless, yes, it's usual, even in Britanny and Normandy. We have no problem with nudity. The real problem is the abuse of sun. Can be very dangerous for the skin. Be careful if you are not used to do it ... #7 : Eat at 5 or 6PM ? What a strange idea ! ;) #8 : Food can be fantastic, yes, but be careful where does it come from. Prefer local small restaurants (in the country side) based on organic products, rather than big corporations of processed food ... #9 : That's a shame. The level of English speaking is ridicule in France. #10 : Kids are rather free (less than in Ireland). But keep an eye on them anyway. There are some lunatics at large ... #11 : Absolutely. There are hundreds of nice places to visit in France ! #12 : Beggars, yes, they are a lot. Some are authentic homeless, some are 'professional buskers' ...

@6falconsue 8 лет назад

On my first visit to Paris, I made the mistake of asking the waiter at the first cafe I went to if he spoke English ('parlez-vous anglais, monsieur?") Of course he said "Non". So I subjected him to my not-so-great French, which soon had both of us laughing. After that, I simply started speaking in French to waitpersons and they inevitably responded in English, so as not to hear me further butcher their language. "L'addition s'il vous plait" is indeed a very useful phrase. Btw, the only place I've seen dog poo in Paris is on the metro :-( Merci pour tout les videos!

@StamfordBridge 3 года назад

It used to be common in the United States to let children roam around freely, but starting in the 90s and forward, Americans became increasingly paranoid about child abducters - far beyond the actual level of threat, which is infinitesimal - and gradually it became the norm, so that now it’s rare for US parents to let their children roam around in public unattended.

@lukeprescott8471 2 года назад

Some parents allow their kids to do whatever but it’s pretty commonly frowned upon here, there’s also this stigma that people that kept their kids roam free are bad and neglectful parents

@Kelbourg 9 лет назад

Pierre Sauvage Oui, offrir c'est encourager. Et c'est une inclinaison parfaitement naturelle des choses. C'est la nature même d'un animal bien connu qu'est le chat : il ne demeure que là où l'on lui donne. Evidemment il faut faire la part des choses entre le malheureux qui en a effectivement bavé et qui est à la rue sans qu'il ne le mérite, et qui lui est dans un réel besoin, dans une situation d'abandon, tant social que sanitaire. Mais il faut écarter ce qui relève et de la tentative de fraude, et de la pure avarice, car oui, elle est bien omniprésente dans ce milieu. Je crois qu'on connaît tous ici un faux clochard qui ratiboise la même zone jour après jour mais qui a bien un chez lui de derrière les fagots. Le cas relevé par notre youtuber est celui de la tentative de fraude, ou en tous les cas, de la suspicion de tentative de fraude, de vol : et à Paris, c'est pas inhabituel, notamment envers les touristes. Les roumains voleurs de portables, c'est culturel, quasiment. Le mieux, pour un touriste, reste de ne pas donner. Déjà car ce n'est pas au touriste d'assumer une telle charge sociale, ensuite car c'est un risque que ce dernier prend. Et autant un français arnaqué a des chances de pouvoir arranger une situation pareille, autant un touriste qui se fait piquer un portable ou ses papiers, c'est juste la fin des haricots pour lui, il peut y renoncer et déjà réfléchir à tous les papiers qu'il aura à remplir lorsqu'il sera rentré au bercail. Bref : c'est à la France de s'occuper des malheureux français, pas à un invité. Et la France doit s'occuper de ses malheureux, pas des voleurs qui abusent eux-mêmes d'une situation désastreuse et bien omniprésente dans le paysage urbain.

Sure it doesn't happen too frequently with people you just meet, but if you make French friends, you learn how to kiss them to say hello, thank you (if you receive a gift) and goodbye. I studied abroad in Aix and that was a true shock when I got to my host family's apartment and met their extended family and suddenly was kissing 8 strangers. I was in Italy a year ago and our Airbnb host did la bise and I was so surprised I almost kissed her on the mouth!

Happy to see some real things about french, about us as actually, I'm french, which are not just french bashing or just some old clichés. Just three things: - actually in most of the food shop, in most of the "epiceries" (groceries) you can serve yourself and pick your fruits or vegetables by yourself. Well, you even have to as nobody will serve you. It is just in some outside market (they take place in the cities some days, like twice a week for instance, I suppose it is not something very current in USA) - I think that there are less dog poop than before. We're learning little by little. It was a lot worst in my childhood - And finally it is very interesting for a french like me to see what can be surprising for an american guy. It finally learn as many thing to me about american culture as it learns to american people about us. Else, everything in this video is very true. And welcome, and as it is said in the video: don't stop your french tour in Paris. ;)
