    How to make friends in France and other meanderings

    Ever wonder why French people all know each other? Sometimes it feels like we’re living in a small village instead of a pretty sizable country, well, I break down the secret behind that and chat a little bit about my upcoming trip to Barcelona and how not to be sick all winter long. In the second half of the episode I misspoke and said something about “English is the most popular language” what I meant to say was that in my experience when traveling lots of people in the hospitality sector speak English so it’s pretty useful.
