I currently live in Miami Beach, Florida.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><br \/>\nWhat is unique about your home city?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>-Paris is the capital and the most populous city in France. The population is over 2 million.<\/p>\n<p>-Since the 17th century, Paris has been one of Europe\u2019s major centers of finance, commerce, fashion, science, and the arts.<\/p>\n<p>-The nickname is the \u201cCity of light\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>-Paris is celebrated for its beautiful city plan, architecture \u201cEiffel Tower\u201d, museums \u201cLouvre\u201d, bridges, cathedrals \u201cNotre Dame\u201d, parks \u201cMonceau\u201d, shopping \u201cGallery Lafayette\u201d, flea markets, sidewalk caf\u00e9s, wide and luxurious boulevards \u201cChamps Elys\u00e9es\u201d, elegant cuisine \u201cLe Jules Verne by Alain Ducasse\u201d, and numerous monuments \u201c\u201dArc de Triomphe\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>-The best tours of Paris by boat, \u201cbateaumouche\u201d on the Seine during the night.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What is your job\/career?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>I\u2019m a Real Estate professional. My challenge is to pass the TOEFL exam and attend an American university. Then I want to work as a manager for an international company in Europe.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><br \/>\nHave you had any experiences of &#8216;culture shock&#8217; in USA or Miami Beach? <\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>American people in Miami give you a hug to say \u201chello\u201d and \u201cgood-bye\u201d.<br \/>\nFrench people give \u201cBisous\u201d for everyone! They\u2019ll just lean in and give you a cheek tap on either side to greet you, to say hello or goodbye. For the professional relationship it\u2019s different, we shake hands or just say \u2018hello\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Another \u2018culture shock\u2019 is air conditioning. The average favorite temperature for Americans is 70 degrees Fahrenheit (about 21 degrees Celsius). It\u2019s too cool for Europeans. Percentage of air conditions in houses: 87% USA, 4% France.<br \/>\nThe reason why people in Florida use air conditioning is the climate, which has more humidity and hotter temperatures than Europe.<\/p>\n<p>American and French people have different stereotypes. For example:<br \/>\n-American people have the impression that everyone in France smokes<\/p>\n<p>-French people have the impression that everyone in the USA is tattooed<\/p>\n<h4><strong><br \/>\nWhat about learning English is challenging or difficult?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>My integration was very fast. Now I say South Beach Languages is my \u201cschool family\u201d Everybody helps each other and the atmosphere is positive. If you\u2019re shy don\u2019t worry, the school proposes different activities often after class.<br \/>\nLearning English is a personal challenge every day. But when you have a motivation and focus, you can be successful. You can change your professional and personal life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What is one tradition in France that we don&#8217;t celebrate in the USA?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u201cBastille Day\u201d. Bastille Day is the common name given in English-speaking countries to the French National Day, which is celebrated on the 14th of July each year. In France, it\u2019s formally called \u201cla F\u00eate nationale du 14 Juillet\u201d. Now there are military parades, fireworks and concerts. This celebrates the unity of the French people on July 14, 1790.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>What food do you miss from France?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>Food is part of the French culture. When we travel, we miss the food from our country. In the US, we are able to find some identical French products, French restaurants or French corner grocery stores, but they are still not the same.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Where are you from?
