Jonzac Part 2

This is the post where I say

1) I'm back from Spain, it was an amazing trip
2) I should have majored in Spanish and not French
3) Everyone is nicer than the French
4) I hate teaching

and then continue on to my rant about New Zealanders and Frenchies, respectively.

To be fair, I've only met 4 people from NZ. Two of those people were absolutely lovely.

The other two stayed in my apartment back in September while their HS students were on exchange. And basically, they were huge assholes. And I'm still not over all the garbage and dirty dishes they left in my kitchen when they flew back to NZ. Or how they thought they were so French and so posh because they drank sparkling water with dinner. Who the fuck drinks sparkling water. And finally because the man thought he could understand French simply because he "picks up languages quickly" and so a week in Paris meant understanding dinner table conversation. No way, dude. If that were true, after 4 months here I'd be fucking Emilie Simone.

And now, French people. Seriously guys. Shut up about your health care becoming "expensive." 6 euros to get an x-ray isn't going to break the bank. And if you really think that "some French people" can't afford that, tell them to lay off the red wine for a week or two.
