Huh? That's because they have my country not too far from them. Younger generations don't give a shit here, which is great. And the English always try to grow better than we are, which is normal after all.
That's why the UK's a bit less racist nowadays. Definitely the least racist of all English-speaking countries indeed.
Just take care of your hubby where you are. He probably needs it.

It is hard to not be very satisfied with the Paris region, that's a blessing. But I'm a fussy person, so I would call myself barely satisfied.

I want more quality and taller modern high-rises for our region. That would solve a lot of our local problems.
The region is nonetheless very smart when it comes to transit. I'm super excited at the latest mass transit projects.
We are a spoiled people. More so than blessed. Lol. I know.
