I have a lot to post, but I just haven't had time to post it. Here is an interview I did for an expat blog. Please ignore my horrible grammar; I was in a hurry and didn't proofread it at all.
And for this answer,"I think there are nice and nasty people everywhere. I have had experiences with both types in Paris, probably more of the negative than positive. I think Parisians are less friendly than other people." I should have said, ". . . probably more of the negative than positive in the beginning." Again, things are much better now than they were last year.

Angela, I enjoyed reading your interview! Yeah, I, too, had been wondering if you were fluent in French. When I first moved to Dubai I was all enthusiastic about learning Arabic, but because everyone there speaks English, I found I didn't get to practise it at all, but in retrospect how I wish I had just insisted they speak to me in Arabic..I would have been fluent by the time I left.
Great interview! Sorry to hear that more of your interactions with people there have been negative.
I'll have to go read it!
I thought it was really interesting how you said you would like to practise your french but everyone else is trying to practise their english!
Nice interview! Happy belated birthday, by the way. I had something I wanted to tell you, but can't remember much at the moment. When it comes back to me, I'll let you know. :)
Thanks everyone. If I had known it was really going to be posted, I think I would have taken a little more time writing it.
