[Correction: She said that outside of Quebec they only speak English, which is of course forgetting about New Brunswick and many strong francophone communities. And also, Paris does not represent France. PLEASE stop saying these two things in comments, we get it]
[UPDATE: That's it - I'm turning off the comments! Every single day someone posts exactly the same thing, which I've just referred to. It's tedious. Can't any of you people read?]
My Couchsurfing guest Geneviève from Montréal and I were speaking in French during her visit in Amsterdam (I'm Irish by the way), so I decided to sit down down with her and talk with her about some differences and history behind Quebec French.
We both agreed that there are some major problems in speaking with French people (although this was only my experience in Paris; the rest of France were much nicer to me), and she shared some of her other thoughts on travelling in Europe.
I hope you enjoy the interview; it's been four years since I lived among Francophones, so hopefully my level of French hasn't gone down *too* much! It's with the help of Couchsurfing guests like Geneviève that I've maintained a workable level of French all these years
