One of the beauty of the French language is definitely its profusion of quirky, funny, poetic expressions... and I know it does not always make sense when translated into English leaving often French culture/language lovers completely flabbergasted... but isn't it part of the charm of the journey afterall?! Oui, oui, bien entendu ! In this episode, I will dissect a popular french expression "aller se faire cuire un oeuf" which basically means to get lost but in a more visual way as it involves to cook yourself an egg.... funny isn't it? And as cooking is involved I will take you on a little trip to France and tell you the true story of Julia Child, an american woman, recognized for bringing French cuisine to the American's home kitchen in the 60's!

Traveling plans were for many of us cancelled or postponed to next year but thank god not for Emily... And I know that many people were supposed to spend summer time in Paris, just like our beloved Emily, but sometimes life has other plans and croissant and champagne will have to wait... but regardless of everything  that happens, we shall always have those moments/memories from France and nothing can ever change that, we'll always have "Paris"! In this new episode I will dissect (again) for you some very French/Parisian clichés presented in the  popular Netflix TV show of the moment called "Emily in Paris"... as I finished watching the whole first season... As you may know or guess, I was myself a Parisian for many years when living in France and could not help being charmed, amused and slightly rolling my eyes at Emily's adventures in Paris, her behaviour and her perspective on the French culture.... but be careful.... French people and Parisian people are 2 different things in France, just saying....

Living abroad is a wonderful way to enjoy new experiences but it is also a way to reconnect and rediscover your own country, culture and heritage with a new perspective! How refreshing it is, when you realise that everything that you took for granted can suddenly all become new and shiny, it is like a second chance in life and starting all other again with babies eyes! In this episode, I will explain you all about French toasts... because as you can imagine they are not called this way in France! This simple but delicious dish has its own story and it is definitely something to add on your breakfast menu or just anytime... just because! Warning, don't listen to this podcast on an empty stomach unless you have all the ingredients to cook your (first) french toasts because this episode will definitely give you FRENCHIC cravings!

Some say that drinking champagne is like drinking the stars. There’s nothing quite like popping a nice bottle of champagne to celebrate special and meaningful moments. One of the beauty of the French culture is its art de vivre celebrating important moments with a flute filled with joyful gold bubbles. But the same way flowers have a meaning, champagne has its own festive purpose. In this episode, I will guide you so you can pick the perfect brand of champagne matching your special occasion and "sabrer le champagne" (saber a bottle of champagne). Remember it is all about enjoying, savouring and making all those beautiful moments count... afterall there is nothing wrong about a lavish champagne sip... even in your bath! So fancy, so chic!
