French superiority

One thing that amazes me is the french arrogance. It’s really something. Aside from thinking that everything was invented in france (like cheese, waffles, wine, crepes, cinema, etc) they also tend to think that all things made in france are better than anywhere else. Theyre now also going as far as to say their football team is the best, having won just 1 world cup (fluke).

Once a french told me that their cheese was better than the italian and the swiss one. Hmm.

Then there’s also the fact that they find themselves experts in all foreign affairs involving Africa. Like they could easily solve the problems in the whole continent (contrary to the reality that to this day most French interventions in Africa were to exploit and deplete resources used in their unsustainable life styles back in France).

Paris in summer

There is just so much stuff to do in Paris all year round, but the summer is by far the best period. Last night we went for a walk around Belleville (the bars) and ended back in front of Notre Dame cathedral where many street artists were performing. Fire juglers, rollers, singers, dancers, even the guy who makes soap bubbles.

And so that was an opportunity to take some cool photos!
