France fascinates me...... it is such a place of granduer... a place of sophistication... Paris is such a romantic place... oh mee gosh...I am working for a French multinational company, and I am blessed to travel to Paris every now and then... It is such a good experience... very classical.. and romantic...
In the coming days.. I'll be posting articles of places in France.. in Paris.. and in suburbs that you should try to see if you're going to visit the country..
For now.. I'll give you a background about France...
(taken from http://www.infoplease.com)
France is about 80% the size of Texas. In the Alps near the Italian and Swiss borders is western Europe's highest point—Mont Blanc (15,781 ft; 4,810 m). The forest-covered Vosges Mountains are in the northeast, and the Pyrénées are along the Spanish border. Except for extreme northern France, the country may be described as four river basins and a plateau. Three of the streams flow west—the Seine into the English Channel, the Loire into the Atlantic, and the Garonne into the Bay of Biscay. The Rhône flows south into the Mediterranean. For about 100 mi (161 km), the Rhine is France's eastern border. In the Mediterranean, about 115 mi (185 km) east-southeast of Nice, is the island of Corsica (3,367 sq mi; 8,721 sq km).
