Top 5 Destinations To Practice Your French.

I know that you’ve been dreaming about Paris, or La Provence, or even the French Riviera. But, did you know that there are other French-speaking destinations that are just as amazing? Don't get me wrong, I love Paris too, but why should we limit ourselves to one city? After all, French is spoken in many different countries so which means that you discover hidden gems. 

We both know that the world is a beautiful place to explore, so why limit ourselves to one place?! Curious to know more? I bet you are! But before giving you my top 5 picks, I want to share a pretty amazing map.

Have you seen this map before ? (Yes, right below...) It shows the countries where people speak French: the Francophones. These are awesome places that you can travel to and practice your French. Pretty vast, huh...?

Now, let me share with you my top 5 picks. The links that I have added are to French websites. You don't have to understand everything. Just try to pickup on some words or expressions to get the main meaning. Take it slow and be gentle with youself.
