The French are "different." You'll often hear this in conversations among the "Anglo-Saxons," as the French like to call English speakers. "Different" means charming, challenging, questioning, stylish, and doing things in their own way and to their own advantage. By looking at the attitudes and values of the French, and explaining how French life and business works, Culture Smart! France shows you how to fit in as a foreigner.

Story
Noraly Schoenmaker was a thirty-something geologist living in the Netherlands when she learned that her live-in partner had been having a long-term affair. Suddenly without a place to stay, she decided to quit her job and jet off to India in search of a new beginning. Her plans were dashed when she fell quickly and helplessly in love: with a motorcycle. Behind the handlebars, she felt alive and free – nimble enough to trace the narrowest paths, powerful enough to travel the longest of roads. She first rode toward the Pacific, through the jungles of Myanmar and Thailand, then into Malaysia.

Story
On 14 August 1943, a specially adapted Halifax bomber took off from RAF Tempsford, an SOE airbase in rural England. Their secret mission was to drop vital supplies to the French Resistance, deep in occupied France. But their plane crashed into a village near Annecy, killing all six of the crew and five civilians. Only Adam Hart's great-grandfather, Frank Griffiths, survived. Seventy-nine years later, Adam retraced that journey so that he could re-tell the story of the great escape and his emotional encounters with descendants of people who'd risked their lives to save Frank.

Captivated and guided by the secrets of place names, he finds their stories entangled with his own explorations of places through birds all across England.
