Once I had a Professor, just because I did not listen to him in class, he went to stereotype all the Asian students in his class. Whenever other students asked him a question, he would be patient. But when it came to Asian students, he would always go "YOU NEED TO FOCUS". I still remember it to this day

You got stared at because you are cute that’s it! We French have no problems with Asian people, believe me. I think you are very kind toward the French, at least you seem to enjoy the time you spent in this country. Glad you like it 😊

There is a lot of anti East Asian and anti south-east Asian racism in france unfortunately (towards Vietnamese people, Chinese people etc), after all france did colonise and brutalise Vietnam (Indochina) so it’s not surprise the racism against Asians remains within french society in france

It's so enriching to hear how foreigners get the perception of how we, French people behave and interact. Thank you so much for your brilliant set of advice to new comers to France.

"Each individual is important." Yes. We use to call each person "citizen" and hope to be all treated as equals. The "customer is king" does not exist. If the customer is impolite. (S)He is the one making a crass and disrespectful mistake whether they pay or not. Politeness, "hello/goodbye/Mr./Mrs/ Please/Thank you", looking in the eye when you speak etc is for everyone.

This was very informative; the best of the last 5 videos I watched on this topic. Thank you!

Awesome advice! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Really enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing! Liked and subbed.

Thank you for sharing 💙

Please make more videos on life in France! Would love to watch them:)

Very informative , great places have some quirks I do agree with your experience no place is very great and yes people are hard to deal with if you;re not native.

Keep up the good work!! It is interesting to hear from an Hong Kongner point of view.

Hi Rae, good observations. So the french love themselves and think they're great. I live in Bavaria , Germany and here too just show interest in Them and then they're happy. 😊

About Admin people, you're absolutely spot on but it is the same for us, french people too!! Sometimes they are rude and useless but don't argue with them...just move on. The mindset is often "not my job" or "you didn't do what is expected beforehand "

Nice personal experience sharing 😊 I agree with most of your points, especially on customer service. It is mostly either awful or average and when it is great, it blows your mind off as uncommon it is 😂😂😂😂 There is a French word, you can look up regarding the arrogance of some French individuals, it is called 'chauvinisme', thing you don't experience much in Belgium or Switzerland.

This is so cute. ;-) People are people, in France most of them are French.

You seem very charming to me.

What about an older American man? I visited there in past and have good memories. Ready to retire and want to stay a year or two. That reaction of your cousin looking similar to your friend is strange.

1:56 bien sûr ça shame marseille 😂😂😂😂😂😂❤ 6:36 on est pas tous comme ça à ce niveau là

i think if the people look at you in the street , it is because you are very beautifull .and for racisme .i never know anybody who have a bad idee about asian people .

Asians have always been very well accepted in France, they are polite, discreet people who rarely cause problems. They have their culture, we have ours, and they never try to impose it on us, any more than their religion. We respect each other, so we live on good terms. This is unfortunately not the case for all foreigners, some try to impose their way of life, their religion on us and this is not tolerated by the French. Asians NEVER do this.

Administration, ha ha - hey are rude to us French too !!

Living in Marseille these days is not living in France, but rather like living in Algiers or the Congo. The least French experience you could have.

In France men stare at all cute girls 😊 d'où qu'elles viennent. Pas à cause de votre race.

Les observations sont très justes. Les français détestent être comparés aux autres.

It´s definitely not offensive to say that a person reminds you of someone else that you know and if this person took offence, then they have a problem! Maybe they also did not like that you found them to be similar to someone in the US. The French still have some hostility towards British and Americans and do not like to be compared with them. But again, this is not your problem and it is their problem. It´s not good to take oneself too seriously and the French need to get to grips with that. The French, and again generalizing, because ofcourse not all French people have the same mentality, but overall, they many of them are still not that open-minded and most of them have been trained to be quite conservative in their thinking from an early age. Nothing wrong with adapting the use of the croissant! It´s called innovation. French people also can make things very complicated on purpose and for no good reason and unfortunately they get away with this in many companies and organizations and this is highly unprofessional. This needs to change.

You'd better stay in Hong Kong. You are not made to travel.......

so cute. whats your ig?
