3 Things I Find Bizarre About The French | Still don't understand | Expat in France

This video explores 3 things that I still find bizarre about French people. It's those French culture shocks that I haven't figured out yet - I still don't understand everything about the French!

The first is the French unhappiness paradox. Why do the French complain all the time? Why are they so pessimistic? What's with the negative outlook?

The second is about the smoking. Why DO so many French people smoke? And from such a young age!

The third is about money - spending it and talking about it!

These are the lesser known and/or lesser talked about French stereotypes. If you can help this Expat in France to understand more, please do so! I look forward to hearing from you down below!

P.S. SORRY for the lighting in this video!! I will buy proper lighting soon, am saving up for it!
