    I had only very friendly reactions to speaking okay French in Paris which goes against everything I expected. It happened multiple times that people spoke English to us and we answered in French because they forgot we were able to speak it but they obviously didn’t mean to be rude with it, much thr opposite. Maybe I just ran into some very foreigber friendly servers etc.

      This was in the Loire Valley, not in Paris. This never happened to me in Paris. Maybe some cultural difference between different regions.
