I don’t know about you, but I love to “travel like a local”. Whenever I visit a new country, I love to buy, eat, drink, and experience the same things that the locals do. Are you the same?
If so, you’ll love today’s episode, because I’m going to explain what things tourists buy when they visit France that French people NEVER buy — like macarons from Laudrée or “traditional” wool berets.
I’ll also tell you what French people buy instead of these things, so that you can indulge in them too and have a more authentic experience when you visit. Best of all, I’ll break down the correct pronunciation, so you can ask for these things with total confidence on your next trip to France!
Take care and stay safe.
😘 from Grenoble, France.
