She speaks both English and French very well. And she s correct on everything. Everything

In our modern busy lives, we have lost the courtesy of greeting. When we visited France. As an Australian, my sentence began Bonjour, je ne parles pas Francaise et je habité en Australie. So that they knew I wasnt a French speaker. I was always brought up to not place my elbows on the table.
-
Excellent advice all. And I always add Madame, Mademoiselle, mesdames, monsieur ou messieurs to my Bonjour on entering a shop.
-
Thank you!!!! I Hope you make more videos :)
-
Little tip by a french : alternative to the "Bonjour !" when you entering a store is "Messieurs, Dames !" wich is the same as "Bonjour" when there is a lot of people who wait to be served....
-
Are you French??? Your English is GREAT!

So true! I used to work in a souvenir shop in Montmartre during 5 years. Some of my colleagues were so aggressive with tourists. I travelled a lot so I could understand what it is to be lost in another culture. But most of sellers are less open minded.

Merci for this video! We are about to go on our first Europe trip and I want to make sure I am being polite & mindful that I am a guest! Merci for all the tips!! 🎉

very useful. I work next to a suburb called Frenchs Forest in Sydney, and indeed there are more French there. Knowing a bit more would certainly help.
-
Very nice! All just good manners and common sense, which people in my country don't often use. As a result, we have few rules of consequence, which is very sad. I enjoyed your video very much.

Bravo Lola , I’m just abonnés and all videos are greats . I would add : don’t hug anyone when you meet us , is not the tradition in France, even if we do « la bise » we never take somebody we don’t know in our arms . You risk to have a person very surprised and confused in front of you😂

Très bonne vidéo et pouvez-vous vous en faire une sur comment se servir et tenir ses couverts pour manger ?
-
Bonjour. Oui. Je fais la bise aussi queltemps comme Vous dit. Merci. 😊

22 years ago I was a guest in a French family's home and every time I saw the lady of the house I'd greet her with, " bonjour madame". They treated me like thier own son. I was there for over a week and she asked me if I wanted any of my clothes washed, scared I said no, one son said go ahead and give her everything. She washed my shirts, pants and underwear - hung them up to dry on a drying rack with her three sons and husband's. 🩲 😏

you could be a great language teacher , great explaining skills and personality 👌
-
I’m starting to think I might be culturally french after watching this lol
-
Thank you so much for this informative video! The style is so distinctive as I am used to British etiquette. I feel like this is relaxed yet very elegant. I feel like a wild animal in France haha.
-
I enjoy watching and listening to your advice. Merci

I love your videos Lola!!
