Primeros reseñadoresGaspard Chevallier

Why are Spaniards so close (in every sense of the word) to their families?

How do they handle work, parties, and naps so well?

What is the source of their surprising love of sport?

Is religion still so influential in Spain?

Why do the Spanish love to gossip so much?

What are the secrets of Cervantes' language?

What is happening to the Catalans?

Why is there such a passion for Spanish gastronomy nowadays?

These and other questions are answered in this book through amusing anecdotes and real-life experiences.

There is so much to write about the French.

Because they invented cinemas, bicycles, cars, photography, radioactivity, but also the bra, the croque-monsieur, the garbage can, and dentures.

Because the French express themselves in a language qualified as one of the sexiest, albeit with sounds so often considered animalistic: coucou, quoi, oui….

Because in France, we intrinsically like to rebel against everything: system, government, our employer, and we go so far as to go on strike preventively against a law that does not yet exist.

A country where artists transform urinals into works of art, build a glass pyramid in front of a century-old building, or split the sky of their capital with a steel tower.

A country seen as the country of love and where the words “Voulez-vous coucher avec moi ?” are the most pronounced by foreigners.

I’ll take you on a virtual excursion to France in order to verify the veracity of its many clichés and stereotypes.

I offer you a global reflection on the French lifestyle, which is so singular, atypical, and surprising.

I will transport you into the heart of an expatriated Gallic who makes fun of his country as much as he loves it.

Bon voyage to France!
