Well, I guess there are all types - I know this very nice French couple who now live in Copenhagen (actually they were born in Spain, but they lived in France most of their lives, and still have a house in Paris). They are simply the nicest people you can meet - OK, they have travelled a LOT, have three children and a one eyed cat (Dali). Of course... cat people has to be nice.

However, the way they speak English is SO charming.
