My girlfriend lived in France for two years and found these 4 very interesting phenomena!
1, The Toilet in France is not divided into men and women, or open toilets
To be honest, I was surprised that my girlfriend told me that the toilets in France are both male and female, but what surprised me even more was that there are many open-air toilets in France. Regardless of men and women, because the French pay great attention to the utilization rate of the house, so when designing the room into several single rooms, some are shower heads, some are toilets, some are urinals, so you can often see boys "tailing" girls into the toilet.
Open-air toilets are rare in China, but very common in France, and people can often be seen urinating in open-air toilets on the streets of France, and even if someone passes by, they will not say anything, because they believe that this is everyone's right to freedom.
2, Chinese goods in France is very popular
In the past, we liked to use imported things, as if foreign things were better than domestic things, but now, domestic products have become a new favorite, and they have also spread overseas. Girlfriend said that she did not expect that now the French will actually use Taobao to buy Chinese goods, not only will search, but also shop around than she used more skilled, because like France perennial high temperature, summer is longer, and the local installation of air conditioning is relatively small, so many French people look for mahjong mats to spread on the bed to cool down!
And france summer is hot, people wear it is relatively cool, inevitably bug bites, many French people also on Taobao to find wind oil essence, flower dew and other summer artifacts! After the French experienced China's summer artifacts, they also gave praise! I really didn't expect that our domestic products would also have a day of overseas sales, and I had to sigh the strength of the motherland!
3. There is no 5 o'clock dinner in France
In China, food is the day, no matter what you do, eating is a big thing, the same is true in France, diet is very important for the French, but unlike Chinese eating habits, we eat dinner normally at five or six o'clock, if it is an office worker, it may be around 7 o'clock later.
But in France, if you ask someone to eat, no one will appear at 5 or 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and eating at 7 o'clock in France is considered very early, 8 o'clock is the normal time for dinner, and if you go to the restaurant at 5 or 6 o'clock, they will not open the door.
4, France's obesity rate is very low
Her girlfriend said that she originally thought that most people in Europe were fat, but she did not expect to go to France this time, only to find that there were very few fat people in France. And on the contrary, There are a lot of slim women in France. And their slim body and living habits are related, because most of the women in France like to smoke, the addiction is relatively large, which affects the health, the obesity rate is not high, and women also pay more attention to their own figure, the French summer is relatively hot, high-calorie things eat very little, naturally can not get fat!
