The popular image of the French in the eyes of foreigners is the Parisian: that elusive, slim, stylish, rather snobby creature that somehow never gets fat. But are the Parisians really representative of French people?
If you’ve spent much time in France, like myself or my guest Oliver Gee, you’ll agree that they’re definitely not.
In fact, Parisians are their own breed, utterly different from the provinciaux, the rather condescending term Parisians use to refer to non-Parisians.
But France functions on a fundamental divide between Paris and the rest of the country, which is often referred to as "la Province" (and not "la Provence" which refers to the South-East of France).
So, Paris = Paris, not Paris = Province (not included: not Paris or province and effing far away = overseas territories and departments aka Tahiti, New Caledonia, Guadeloupe, etc.).
I for one, having spent a lot of time in the South of France know that people are more relaxed, open, able to take their time...and they're not all skinny, either!
There are so many things we could have discussed in this video, from cost of living to way of life, but the resounding message is clear - Paris is NOT France! Paris n'est pas la France!
What differences have you noticed between Paris and the rest of France? Let us know down below!

We, French from the Province, like to tease the Parisians and make fun of them but I'm pretty sure that we all got some Parisian friends that we love! Also we pretty much like to make fun of everyone, people from the South will make fun of the North, we all make fun of people from the mountains, people from Toulon make fun of the ones from Marseille and Nice... people from Normandy make fun of people from Brittany. People from North West Brittany make fun from people of South West Brittany... People from the 'Nord' department (59), make fun from people from the 'Pas-de-Calais' (62)... and of course we also make fun of Parisians. It's part of the folks, hating of those arrogant, unfriendly, people from the big city... making fun of others is a big part of the french culture, but at the end it's mostly just a joke!

I can't speak for everyone in the states, but whenever I come across someone from NYC or LA, I could care less, in the same way many French feel about people from Paris. I don't mean I don't like them, it's just, I'm not going to fawn over the fact that they're from one of those cities. I think NYC is a beautiful city with lovely museums and culture, but just like the rest of the world has this very romanticized view of Paris, I would say the same goes for Americans in New York-people around the world LOVE NYC, we're not indifferent but we don't have that hyped up image in our heads.

It's funny. I'm from New York state, but I'm at the opposite end in Buffalo, about an 8 hour car ride. The two are completely different worlds. There are many here who love going to NYC, but there are plenty who could care less and many who actually quite despise NYC. Personally, I love visiting. I love the energy of big cities. But understandably it's not to everyone's liking. I've also been to LA, the weather is nice, but I couldn't live there. Needing a car to do just about anything is not for me. I quite prefer NoCal more tbh. Especially around Santa Cruz and Monterey. Absolutely stunning.

I found your video to be absolutely correct. Paris is not France any more than New York is the US. And I found the Parisians to be perfectly warm and charming IF you make even a small effort to say "Bonjour." The rest of France, as you say, is "achingly beautiful" and the people could not be more friendly and welcoming. IMHO, the secret for a tourist/traveler is very simple - act like the guest that you are. Respect their ways and you will be drowned in good will and great experiences. Going back again this year and Carcasonne is on the list! Thank you both for sharing!

I have only been to Paris and France once. Even in that short time, I noticed quite a difference between Paris and "provincial" France. The people were much friendlier outside of Paris. Of course in the United States, you would notice a difference between people in New York City and Colorado where I am from. New Yorkers tend to be abrupt and Coloradoans are casual and easy going.

Also, once when I was in Paris I was staying at this tiny little hotel and after a couple days, I saw this couple who was also staying there and who were obviously and no doubt French, but they were so out of their element in Paris. A little awkward and uncomfortable, even though they were totally French. That's when I realized not all French are Parisian

Love this video! I live in the country in south western France with my husband. Being Canadian, I heard all the stereotypes of France and once I arrived here was very taken aback that it was not at all what the rest of the world envisions. Then we went to Paris for a weekend and there it was! Lol. It’s sad that the rest of the world think that the capital city represents all of a country. But that’s the way it is with every country I suppose. That’s what the world sees when in reality, any country is so much more diverse than just their capital city.

Merci pour cette vidéo très sympathique comme toujours ! Je suis Française et j'habite à Nice, donc une grande ville du sud (de la "Côte d'Azur"), et je dois te dire que si nous n'aimons pas trop Paris, c'est que justement : tous les étrangers aiment tellement Paris qu'ils réduisent trop souvent la France à sa capitale... et les Parisiens aussi ont tendance à avoir cet état d'esprit de "la France, c'est nous", et dénigreront ce qu'ils appellent "la province" ou "la campagne" (comme vous dans la vidéo :p), alors qu'il y a tant de richesses dans le reste de la France que l'on ne trouve pas à Paris ! Paris est une ville très intéressante, mais ce n'est qu'une parcelle de la France parmi tant d'autres avec toutes leurs identités propres ! Je t'encourage à voyager si tu le peux.... Et je n'ai jamais vu Annecy, mais Carcassonne est vraiment très beau !! :)

A big yes to Carcassonne. I have a close friend who retired in SW France. I house (and chicken) sat for him in 2017, then went to Carcassonne after he got back from his trip. I stayed inside the Carcassonne Cité for 2 nights, which I HIGHLY recommend. Don't go in summer, it would be ghastly with crowds. I went in mid-October, just fabulous. Carcassonne is a must, lots of history and amazing reconstruction of the entire Cité. Many cafes and shops, plus the winding pedestrian "streets." Ahhhh. A car would be a liability, walk everywhere - both in the Cité and in the Bastide (newer town below, nearer the train station).

Salut, Rosie, First, I just want to say I’m sad that you left France but I’m happy for you because of all the new opportunities you have ahead of you back in your homeland. Your videos have been so helpful and fun for my own trip to France. The trip described in this video is very similar to what I’m doing this summer. I’m taking three months and traveling slowly in a heart-shape path except I’m going clockwise and added some places outside France, partially because of my family’s heritage there. Those were Brussels and the typical day trips, Luxembourg City, and an overnight in Turin. Right now I’m in Aix-en-Provence. So much of what you’ve said in your videos is on the mark. I would add that the Nice area seems much happier with a much lighter attitude. That could possibly be attributed to their temperate climate and being on the sea. So glad I booked some time in Carcassonne! Anyway, my trip is about half done. It’s been going by fast and has been amazing. Thanks, again, for sharing all things French and Parisian!

I went to France as a student. My program was in Pont-Aven, and I loved the French Family I stayed with. I was in Paris for 5 days, too. If an American smiles and makes a small effort to speak some French, the people of Paris are very friendly. But I was advised to not make a lot of noise, smile, speak French when I could, and I would enjoy my visit. And I did. But it is true, Paris is Paris, just like LA or New York are not like the rest of America. I loved your vlog.

Most importantly the potential Metro threats and being observant of one's surroundings along with taking care of possessions in restaurants and when enjoying Paris life. New Zealand sounds wonderful. I am off to watch your friends videos. Merci boucoup. X Congratulations to you both on your recent marriages. X

Le Paris de la mode, de la « grande » culture, de l’« intellectualisme »… ne concerne réellement qu’un nombre TRÈS limité de Parisiens. Dès que l’on s’éloigne un peu des quartiers centraux prestigieux dont ne sortent jamais ces gens-là (à part peut-être pour aller prendre un vol à CDG !), on trouve des Parisiens pas si différents des provinciaux, bien plus attachés à leur environnement immédiat (« le quartier ») qu’au reste de la capitale… Et dans les quartiers excentrés et non touristiques, les non-Parisiens ne sont pas snobés par la population locale !

Exproprié dans les années 80 de mon 15 ème arrondissement, les logements insalubres aux loyers bloqués on été rasés et remplacés par des lofts pour bourgeois et retraités aisés sur fond de spéculations immobilières forcennée. Les vrais parisiens, en particulier, ceux des classes populaires, se trouvent au dela, du périphérique, en banlieue.

Les "provinciaux" ne sont pas tous les mêmes ! Certains provinciaux ressemblent aux Parisiens des quartiers centraux, et d'autres non. Les Parisiens qui snobent n'ont rien pour snober les autres, c'est pour ça que c'est ridicule. Tout le monde sait qu'ils n'ont aucune raison d'être meilleurs. C'est pour ça qu'ils paraissent peu cultivés, enfermés entre leurs murs, etc. Ils croient représenter la France sans la connaitre. Je ne parle pas de tous les Parisiens, mais de la partie "moins cultivée que la moyenne mais qui croit l'être plus" de la France. J'ai l'impression que ces incultes pensent qu'en dehors de Paris, c'est la campagne. Alors que des villes comme Lyon par exemple n'ont rien à envier à Paris en tant que ville. Aucun rapport avec la campagne. Ce que devraient savoir certains, c'est que Paris n'est qu'une grande ville en France parmi d'autres. Rien de plus. En dehors de Paris, on a d'autres grandes villes comparables à Paris sur de nombreux aspects (histoire, culture, gastronomie, etc.).

Je ne sais pas où Oliver a fait son tour de France mais j'ai l'impression qu'il décrit uniquement la campagne profonde des petits villages de 300 habitants perdus dans les champs et montagnes car si vous allez à Lyon, Nantes, Lille, Bordeaux etc... il y a aussi des gens habillés fashion, des transports bondés en heure de pointe avec des gens stressés, des bars branchés conceptuels ouvert jusqu'à pas d'heures , des soirées en rooftops, des clubs avec des dj internationaux passant de la techno minimale, des galeries d'arts et events hype et des étrangers (Erasmus et migrants) qui font que la France des villes n'est pas si différente de Paris (hormis une densité de personnes dans les rues moindre, et une mentalité moins fermée, agressive et stressante, des rues plus propres et des transports plus moderne et mieux entretenue, et aussi peut-être moins de crimes). En revanche oui on s'en fout de ce qui se passe à Paris :p

Living in Paris for now 30 years, I notice that the way people choose their clothes depends of the distance from the axe « Champs-Elysées - Rue de Rivoli » . When you move 1 km from this axe, the apparence change. 3 km it is another one. I know that it is an approximation, but if you select only people working in these areas, it seems to be more realistic.

Is Marseille France? Is Corsica France? Paris is France just as much as the other regions. But I understand it's irritating that Paris takes so much pride, while every region of France is absolutely gorgeous, sometimes every village. It's fair to say that Paris is stressful, busy, uncomfortable. But there is sometimes the hate of the parisiens involved, for political reasons (corsica), for sports reasons (Marseille). Many people living in the country side express their personal feelings instead of a neutral opinion. As a parisien, I admit there the vast majority of journalists and politicians live in Paris, and they dominate the medias. This caste is considered as "bobos", living in rich areas, they enjoy the good side of globalism, but they tell others how to behave, how to live, how to spend, how to vote. And this is a massive problem because this caste does not know France well. Yet, many parisiens travel a lot and do know France well, they are just not on TV shows, radios, or in the parliament as much. This small elite is the reason of the hate but don't represents the parisiens in the majority, to my mind.

The interesting point in France is that it is at the crossroad of all european climates and landscapes. A mix of California, New-England, Appalachian, Viriginia, Rocky Mountains in a nutshell (1,000 km by 500 km) So there is a strong contrast between Paris, a metropolis, and Province with smaller cities. But also between regions, with strong influence of different cultures: celtic (Britanny), belgian/flemish (North), germanic (Alsace, Lorraine), latine (Languedoc, Provence), etc... Not forgetting the very distinctive Corsican and Basque cultures. All with differing accents, traditions and state of mind, united by the common language and history.. The very heart of France being the Auvergne Mountain, Loire valley and Parisian region. But the surrounding will totally change within a few hundreds miles.

La détestation des parisiens est le plus solide ciment unifiant les français. (Même les parisiens ne s'aiment pas entre eux). En même temps, les rivalités régionales peuvent être assez gratinées aussi : bretons vs normands, basques contre béarnais, alsaciens et lorrains, marseillais vs aixois vs toulonnais vs niçois... Et des aquitains qui aiment les bordelais, c'est super-rare !! Bon, tout ça, c'est un peu pour rire... Common dislike of parisians is a strong unifying factor of whole France (even parisians dislike each others) Local rivalries and dislikes existe though...

Mais bon déjà rien que le mot province, ça isole Paris et le reste de la France. L'origine du mot ça vient de l'empire romain où les provinces étaient les régions soumisent à Rome. Aujourd'hui en France ce mot sonne comme si toutes régions hors Paris ou l'île de France sont en quelques sortes inférieurs. Quand on voit que la France est hyper centralisé sur Paris. Après oui il y a beaucoup de personnes qui ne sont pas d'originaires de Paris mais c'est justement ceux qui n'ont connus que Paris qui peuvent avoir des discours péjorative sur l'ensemble des régions sous le nom de province.

Yes, it's strange how many provincials will say they're turned off by Paris, and one very common remark they make is that Paris is a bustling city and Parisians are too busy to take their time with the pleasures of life, and friends. My reply is always, "Paris is a world capital and we have lots of visitors from around the world to interest and educate us; you can't expect Parisians to act as if they live in a country hamlet. And then, we have the Opera, the museums and lots of movies and restaurants to amuse us, as you don't." That makes the provincials think a bit, and they really don't have any reply. I ask them if they've ever been to Paris, and a surprising number of them say "no" - they're going on what their neighbors and communities say.

Oui bien sûr... il n'y a pas d'opéras, de théâtres ou de cinémas ailleurs qu'à Paris, c'est bien connu. Le reste de la "Province" se limite aux histoires au coin du feu et utilise des pigeons voyageurs pour communiquer. Ca va, tu n'as pas trop l'impression d'exagérer ? Alors oui, bien sûr, l'offre culturelle parisienne est imbattable, tant en quantité qu'en diversité comparé au reste de la France. Mais ça ne veut pas dire que rien ne se passe ailleurs, hein... J'ai vécu 23 ans en proche banlieue parisienne et j'en suis parti pour Nantes. Pour RIEN au monde je ne ferais machine arrière. Toute l'offre culturelle imaginable ne suffira pas à me faire oublier mon clapier à lapin payé au prix fort, mes trajets en transports en commun bondés interminables, le coût général de la vie ahurissant, les foules agressives, le manque cruel de verdure (on a vite fait le tour du bois de Boulogne ou du parc des Buttes Chaumont...), le niveau de délinquance affolant, la saleté repoussante des rues, etc. Je reviens de temps en temps avec plaisir y passer des week-end mais ça me suffit.

One of the first things my French friend told me was "France is not Paris." Foreigners only know Paris and equate whatever they know of the city to the rest of the country. Personally, I am not impressed by Paris. When I first visited the city eons ago, the first thing I noticed was how bad the city smells and how dirty it was - that coming from someone who's lived half of her life in a third-world country in Asia! I was horrified by how filthy the train stations were - there's dog poop everywhere, it smells of pee everywhere, drunken men begging, etc. Also, the people are generally aloof, distant and cold (some even rude - intentionally bumping me despite seeing how heavily pregnant I was, for example). So inasmuch as my husband loves the city and would love to visit it every year, (we live in Germany) I plan ahead and book other towns, cities or islands in Spain or Italy instead.

Capitals tend to be busy so you would likely see very reserved, busy and sometimes snobby people there. It's quite...normal(?) If you want nicer response then be nice to them, if they still act rude then maybe they're having a bad day, right? You never know what's going in their life, lay off a bit. No need to generalise ^_^
