I'm sure you are wondering why my blog is inundated with French links, language widgets and food posts when I am, in fact, 100% American (well, actually, I am about a quarter French, a quarter English, a quarter German and a quarter halfbreed) and living in New York. I know what you're thinking and I am NOT a French blog stalker. There is just something about France and that way of life that intrigues me. Brave Americans that are currently living in France write most of the blogs I have listed. They are learning the language, dealing with the people, being away from their families, and learning how to function in a foreign country. I really respect that and am even a bit envious. It must be such an adventure to pick up and go, to start a new life in such a foreign and exotic country. I am counting the days until I can go back to Europe and experience it all over again, which will hopefully be this summer. I am trying to learn the language before we go on our trip so I can at least make an attempt to communicate. I may not be living in France, but I am a French girl at heart.
