My 6 year old is absolutely obsessed with France. My grandmother was from France. We watch your channel all the time and my daughter loves your content!
It's always a great gift to be obsessed by one's grandmother !
Who else has nothing to do with France and still watches her videos?
Really!
Me!
I'm a Chef by trade and apprenticed under a French chef for 3 years. So, I love having the French culinary flavors in my life on a daily basis. Been a Chef for 20 years and I still love the flavors of the cuisine. Plus it's so diverse depending if you're in Marsielle to the French alp etc. Thank you for the videos.Godbless
Wow I need this. I was thinking about moving from Ireland to France as I was learning French the entire pandemic but lost track recently so this lit the fire again!
I didn’t really think of music and video as preserving a cultural outlook but of course they do. Very charming, thanks!
Merciii! They are a true cultural escape :)
Bonjour Rosie! As an Anglophile and a Francophile, I'm so excited to meet my fellow Francophiles! ❤ I definitely miss being in Paris after I visited for the first time a year ago.
When I was in France on Erasmus I really couldn't speak French at all so I had no idea what was happening half the time! I'm properly learning French this time around, nearly twenty years later and I'm really determined to reach a C level CEFR within 2yrs. I do love the food, cheese, wine. Some French were so excited about Beaujolais and it was like 1998 and even now I got excited when I saw Beaujolais in the shop! 😄 It wasn't 1998, though! Maybe I should have kept a bottle back then!
We made a video for a French punk band, though while we were there Le Zab(Zabriskie Point) which was cool and I still listen to them and have the master tapes. I have lots of stories of my time there! 😄
Oh, if you're talking about "Le Beaujolais Nouveau est arrivé" on the 3rd Thursday in November, you did well to drink it at the time! (It doesn't keep.)
Love this! Got some great ideas! Thanks for sharing 🇫🇷❤️
Discovered this channel during quarantine and love to watch as I sip my morning coffee. Definitely brings just a bit of joy and hope for traveling to come each time I watch. Thanks for the content
Ember seems like such a lovely person! Will definitely check out Feeling Francaise... and will also try a salad with only oil and garlic :)
You are so kind, Rebekah! Looking forward to becoming friends :)
Wait....is that show “10%” called “Call My Agent!” in English on Netflix? It sounds a lot like the show I’m watching.
ALSO! Rosie, I love your content. I’ve been watching you for years. Thank you for bringing French culture into my LIFE!
Yes! Géraldine at Comme Une Française recommended that and Service Free La France and lots of other shows. Also, for learners you can find lots of dialogue to enjoy especially for beginners if you watch Peppa Pig in French! There's loads of them. Don't laugh! 😄😄I don't know how truly French Peppa is but still! 🇲🇫😁
Yes! It's the best show!
I move to paris in January for an internship so I’m binge watching all of your videos super helpful 🥰
@@NotEvenFrench thank you! I’m struggling to find an apartment though do you have any tips on where to look?
That's so exciting!! I'll be living vicariously through you :)
@@EmberLangley haha thank you! I make videos too and I’ll be posting lots about my paris journey!
Spotify is great for discovering new artists in French and some of the playlists are great. French Electronica, French Indie Cave, French Indie Rock/Pop, amongst others.
LOVE the French Pop playlist SO much!
The fromages... so hard to find them overseas (and so expensive when there is one). And yes, the local corner stores are not them same: chippies, chocolate, booze and cigarettes: that’s all they have. No fruit/veggie stand on the sidewalk that makes you want to eat an apple right now
SO EXPENSIVE!!! omg.
I live in New Jersey, we have Trader joe with variety of french cheese, also Zabars in Manhattan has big section of products from. FRANCE . My advise for people: dress like a French, read books, watch European films, eat real food- cook for yourself. Take care of your body like french women. And you practically french.
A great discussion. I especially liked the French style of clothing and makeup. You ladies really know your French cuisine!
Thanks for watching!
I love how you all mention the transition of being from somewhere else and then coming back with a spirit to replicate the things you missed about France! I totally related to the parts on French décor because it's so hard to find things that genuinely encapsulate the design choices you see over there. It is possible. Merci pour votre video!
Ahhh so happy I found your channel!!! Obsessed with all things french!
Chante France radio keeps my French ear in tune.... Love the breakfast with Santa ads in French this time of year
Love your channel ❤️❤️
En out parlet life now
I lived in France for nearly 2 years. I miss France & the French way of life every day back here in NZ. I recommend listening to France Info direct radio & I love the TV show La Maison France 5. Love your Channel Rosie. 🇫🇷💙🤍❤️
"French" has become a brand
Rosie, you're a really great interviewer!
Bonjourr!!! Love this episodeee!! Au revioir!!!
Merciiii
Hi! Alain Delon films are a treat to watch. I also enjoy Manu Chao:)
With experience being a foreign student in Paris and Auckland I can say that this is sooooo different.
I love the French esthetic of understated elegance and mystery. I've always wanted to visit France , I even considered moving there . Watching the videos on this channel has made me considering moving there again, (after I finish uni)
Fun to watch! I want to live in France in the future....
good luck
Bonne vidéo ! Je vais commencer à suivre Ember sur Instagram.
Bonjour Madamoiselle!! Thank you so much for such a wonderful video. I miss it there to. I was young tho but I feel like I belong there knowing they bought Louisiana a long time ago and having France on my genealogy test. I absolutely love the culture. Merci Beaucoup and Au Revoire 🇫🇷💙🇫🇷💙🇫🇷💙
👍💛 merci et Au revoir...
Aldi has a partially baked baguette that's not bad! ;) And its own version of French-type cheeses that aren't exactly authentic but still good and reminiscent of the real thing, and pretty cheap. Whenever my boyfriend is visiting me we go there like every other day. 😅
Gosh... I don't have an Aldi close, but good to know! I was living in Orlando and LOVED my grocery shopping at Aldi.
Right they wake up and go with a little lipstick, some jeans and a white blouse and it’s ok. They don’t stress the full Face or tripping on little things to have everything perfect. They decorate with a lot of books I notice and it’s still ok. They live a simple life and I loved that.
I love this. I am half French but know nothing about the culture. Lol
I needed this video. Thank you both💖 My absolute favorite French movie growing up was Amelie. Recently I watched Blind Date and Lolo, both really good 😊
All such great films! :) I'm sharing a list of some of my favorites soon on feelingfrancaise :)
Funny you say that because I’m French and I found ‘Amelie’ absolutely horrendous! I almost had to stop watching it... Lots of right-minded feelings conveyed through this film and so cheesy. Don’t get fooled by those romanticized visions of Paris.
Sometimes on Friday nights, my friends and I get together to share a Sabbath night dinner together. I made beef bourguinon for my friends last time, and I’m planning to make for them a creamy tarragon chicken dish. I also made Patricia Wells’ Apricot Tart using peaches and nectarines.I love cooking French food❣️🥰💕💕💕🍑🥖🫔🍒
During a summer traveling through France, I immediately felt like after a lifetime of homesickeness I felt I'd arrived home.
So many people looked like family members who are Quebec French. The biggest compliment was at Monet's compound, a British couple gave me hand signals asking that I snap a photo for them. They thought I was a French woman.
Whats wrong? f that shit off!
Long live France 🇫🇷 roots of enlightenment , luxury, philosophy, poetry and science. She put an end to the dark times with the light of logic, reason and beauty.
Super vidéo, comme d’habitude. Juste qq pourrait-il supprimer les messages qui ont l’air de venir de sites qui n’ont rien à faire sur TH-cam svp ? Sinon encore une fois, super intéressant.
Excellent video !! So nice to hear that people do with French the same thing that I do with the Anglosaxon cultures and the English language. By the way Rosie, Asterix is indeed French but Tintin is Belgian !
Look up Parisienne Farmgirl too-she would be amazing to talk to.
💙
I am French and had such a laugh when you talked about the attitude IT’S SO TRUE ! 😅 we’re always complaining about something that we can’t control... Also about having dinner all together every night, it’s a French statement... For the work culture I felt more that slow down effect when I was in NZ (still obsessed with your beautiful country) and about the music still have my Six60 🥝 playlist going on after being back in France for 5 years 😂
We loveeee a French attitude/mindset.
@@EmberLangley YOU NOT FRENCH WENCH!!!
George Moustaki and Barbara You Tube. Timeless
Aznaour also "she"...
Charles Dumont, MHZ foreign language mysteries especially the French ones-“Murder in....” takes you all over France. Love the ways the women look-not much makeup, messy hair, and always a kissing scene!❤️
on the music /litterature side there s a new "feu! chatterton" album that just came out...but its a bit on the intellectual side^^
Is there any way to subscribe to Canal+ without a French bank account or bank card? I couldn't find any way (in the states) to subscribe. I was hoping to see all the great shows and rugby.
salut . j'ai besoin d'une information, je veux un permis de conduire mais mon français n'est pas bon. puis-je faire des codes de conduite en anglais. c'est possible ou pas. ? Merci
22:41 I am French. Some foreigners like to say swear words in French. They seem to think they have to say a lot of swear words like "Putain!", "Merde!", "Bordel!" to sound more French. I don't subscribe to this point of view, I think they are absolutly wrong, they just become rude and vulgar, and absolutely ridiculous. Do I have to say swear words like "Fuck!", "Shit!" or something like that if I want to go to USA or New Zealand?
Should I think that "the minimum that I could do" is swear in English? No, I don't think so.
In France, the minimum that you could do is NOT to swear.
Rosie, your French husband should clean your tongue with a soap. 😛
Where is Ember instagram?
Cocotte-minute, de rien;)
Rosie, could you write down the names of the films that Amber (Ember?) mentioned in the beginning? You're always so good about translating a French phrase into English immediately after saying it, but she doesn't have that reflex. Her French accent is okay, but it's not a native accent, and so I couldn't pick it up... nor the name of the French actor (François So-and-So) she has a crush on!
Sweet video!
Hi, the list of films and TV series is in the description box. Hope this helps.
@@isabellem1945 Ah, I did look, but my eye skipped over the films somehow. I guess *Deux Moi* and *Le mystère d'Henri Pick* are the two Ember mentioned.
Now, I listened again (it starts at 4:02), and I'm afraid to report that Ember doesn't pronounce "deux" correctly, so I never would have gotten that. The second film was... "Mon ingénue"??? Definitely not Henri Peck. That must have come up later. Thanks for writing, Isabelle!
Mon Inconnue is one I mentioned! Sorry my accent is terrible :)
I love Paris, but I find it annoying to imagine that people would judge you so hard for wearing heavy makeup or bright colors. I dont need makeup at all, but I love to play with makeup and wear bold eyeshadow. Same with bright colors. I love black, but I also live neon. Just depends on my mood. If I lived there, I sure as fuck wouldnt change just to fit it. How stupid. Give me dirty looks then, I dont give a crap
My god....... I, am French living in US a lot of years and I have to say I,AM ASHAMED BY THE FRENCH MOVIE TODAY 😶....WHY?...... SIMPLE, watch movies fro the 60s and mostly 70s with ALAIN DELON, LINO VENTURA, DE FUNES, YVES MONTAND, BELMONDO, JEAN GABIN ..etc .. and you go to see the difference with crap FRENCH movies today. Please, do that.....you Don, t believe how good was the soundtrack too of this era. It was another time. All French regret this era about movies. Not only me.
Sad to know USA banned all French movies after the 60s in America.
Why the filters? Not French. 😉

THE FRENCH WARNING :
American tourists in France : to make business ? Well not for me. Sorry. People are not wallets on feet for me. Once again, one mocks the Americans through tourism Industry although they are very intelligent ppl & are curious of History , Art , etc.. Culture is also very important in France even in our local way to express.. I can't help. Yes we can have fun of course , but sometimes.. you never pose enough questions then you judge .. hmm..
The American History is so rich & in art also ! Well at some point, we turn speaking only in French between us mentioning our culture and local wordgames.. Is that rude toward our American guest ? Or else, you don't manage to follow the French rythm ? Once..... I was blocked bc I wrote on FB that Am ppl were ' stupid' .. now you all can access the internet so there's no excuse to be curious or at least to pose cultural questions etc .. Feeling embarassed ? Since when ? DARE THE LOVE of the concept . It would be a pity to have culture shocks on FB.. if it's not the case already. Even the Japanese think they're in conquested land here.. the shock was very harsh last time in Nice with one of them ( he was apatrid)...
Please try to love your own History , the diversity of your local cultures .. yes, there's something intellectual or cultural which might turn tough for you here , you will see with time. I prefer that you pose questions than keeping prejudices or aprioris then spitting on '' the Frogs '' . I blocked Joshua bc he sounded .... as if he knew Europe better than me
Very nice discussion but obviously sort of sad. Two women who seem to want to live in France but who have suppressed this aspect of their lives by going away. Submission to males?
100% wanna be.
is this supposed to be cool??? it is sad.
