Robin Long+FollowCulture Shock Hits Harder Than I Thought!Thought moving to southern France would be a breeze since I speak French? Nope! Turns out, even the little things—like buying veggies or figuring out parking—can totally trip you up. I’ve made some pricey mistakes (hello, €120 parking bill), and don’t get me started on lunchtime shop closures. But honestly, it’s all part of the adventure. Provence is gorgeous, and every day’s a learning curve. Who knew culture shock could be this real, even when you know the language? #News #CultureShock #FranceLife00Share
mary01+FollowFrench School Lunches Are Next LevelImagine your kid’s school lunch being a four-course meal with real plates, cheese courses, and actual time to eat—welcome to France! After moving from the US, this mom was totally floored by how seriously the French take lunchtime. It’s not just about food; it’s about learning, socializing, and slowing down. Now her son’s a fan of stinky cheese and long lunches. Who knew the biggest culture shock would be what’s on the lunch tray? #Food #CultureShock #FranceLife30Share
