Why France Sucks (But I Still Visit Anyway)
France is beautiful. But after 20 years living in Italy, traveling here feels… different.
In this video, I take you behind the croissant to share the truth about traveling in France—from sad KREA coffee machines and hard baguettes to the restaurant that turned out to be a McDonald’s.
But don’t get me wrong—there’s a reason I still came. France is stunning, with quiet mornings, limestone gorges, and villages that feel frozen in time. This is a story about travel honesty, about the gap between expectations and reality, and about why we keep showing up—even when dinner shuts down at 9 p.m. sharp.
