How to become a real Parisian

Parisians have a little je-ne-sais-quoi that you would die to know about? Would you kill to know what's their secret? Well, there won't be any blood splashed on this blog but some tips and advices to help you reach "your dream".
- You can learn French, it's easy with Mr. Frog with a Blog. If you haven't watch this video yet, you have to do it now because it's hillarious and not quite far from the truth. Mr. Frog does teach you how to speak French in 5min and 36secs.
- Now it's time for you to meet French people so you will be able to reproduce their accents, gestures, style and so on...basically what ever you can get. Of course, it isn't quite easy to meet Frenchies because you need to know the French doesn't like meeting new people, the French isn't very social and especially not toward foreigners. But lucky you, you have money so you can "buy yourself some French friends". Meeting The French is a site where you can organize a diner with Frenchies or have a commented tour of Paris with a French accent guide. Cool, hu?!
- On Paris Gourmet, you are taken for a Parisian - classical - tour: you will go to a flea market, prepare the meal with a French cook, eat it and then go for a shopping tour of designer's boutiques and fashion stores. I bet you will feel at least 40% French after that, won't you?
- You can also learn from others. For example, this article How to be a perfect Parisian girl. It passes by the XXL bag, the XXL sunglasses so nobody can see your eyes and you can keep that je-ne-sais-quoi style that makes you so unreachable. Because that's your point right?
Well, boys and girls I think you ready to become French. Just need to practise and don't be shy, French aren't, French are always proud to be French!
Now you are pretty close to the 100% French!
Bonne chance.
