"France Through the Eyes of a New Française" is not a travel guide, but a living map of emotions.This book is the gaze of a woman who arrived in France as an emigrant and opened it the way one opens champagne: with trembling hands, with music, and with quiet revelations. Here, Paris is not only the Eiffel Tower but also the secret streets of Balzac, the cafés of Simone de Beauvoir, and the Opéra Garnier, where velvet holds the breath of centuries. Provence smells of lavender and silence, the Camargue resounds with the hooves of white horses, and Lyon speaks through its hidden traboules. Each chapter is like a walk: from the vineyards of Burgundy to the waves of Biarritz, from the museums of Paris to the perfumes of Grasse. But beyond the journey lies the central question: what does it mean to be a "new Française"? This is a book about beauty, integration, and the search for one's place in a new culture. Blending memoir, essay, and cultural map, this work is for travelers, for emigrants, and for anyone seeking inspiration in learning how to see life through the beauty of details.
