Personal information: It took a long time for me to discover and/or develop my love for France. While I was shocked at a young age by people who didn't speak English or German on my way to Spain via France, a work placement near Nice brought me closer to the country. After various vacations throughout most of France, a work placement in Paris, short breaks, and various wine tastings, I have to say France is a truly wonderful country. I've just returned from a Disneyland stay... As written above, despite Mont Blanc with a height of 4,810 meters, only 101st place (do the overseas territories count in the statistics?). |
