Parlez vous anglais?

I'm trying to remember the book that I used to help with phrases. Honestly, it was enough that I was able to be not completely useless within a week or two of drilling.

I second using the movies - Paris has a lot to it. There's also a rhythm of everyday life that is just yummy. See, most homes only have small refrigerators, so grocery shopping happens daily - and on foot at small neighborhood markets.

So, besides the historical and artsy stuff (of which there's plenty), there's a lot to be said to just the way of life and watching people while having a cup of yummy coffee (for me, cafe au lait, sil vous plait).

I understand being thrown off balance - but I trust that you will come back to your usual self and enjoy the ride.
