Ah, France - a magical land where crunchy baguettes casually stroll arm-in-arm with stinky cheeses down quaint, cobblestone streets. It's a place where being fashionably late is just "being on time," and the wine flows as freely as the rivers of verbosity from any self-proclaimed philosopher at a local café. The Eiffel Tower presides over Paris like an iron-laced headmistress, reminding everyone to mind their manners but never forget to dream. From the twinkling nightlife of Paris to the serene lavender fields of Provence, it seems France has mastered the art of "la belle vie".
