If you avoid Paris, France is a nice place and the people are nice country people.
A large part of my family fled/was captured in France back in WWII and I’m fluent in French, since my mother never quite got the hang of Hebrew to the point where she was happy speaking it first.
She always loved the countryside there.

That is true...
Especially in Normandy where they have streets named in honor of American paratroopers such as Bob Murphy.

My Dad's impression of the French, which he formed as the result of an extended vacation during the mid-1940's was that they were like people all over the world: the urbanites [Parisians] were hostile, rude and superior, and the people in the countryside were as warm, welcoming, and happy as any he'd ever met anywhere.
They probably feel the same way about Parisians in France as we do in the US. Elsewhere, they still remember us warmly.

French countryside is beautiful, going to Paris this summer, with a day-trip to Normandy.
