One of the perks of living in France is a simpler way of life. In a simple life you dry your clothes on a clothes line instead of a dryer. However, if one chooses to hang ones clothes outside for the day and then bring them in at night, that person should thoroughly shack out their clothes before bring them inside. If one doesn’t do this they can get visitors from outside, such as the one pictured below.

Currently, I am living on the French country side, which has quite a lot of benefits. I live in the town of St. Genis (pronounced Sun Genee), which is a picturesque small French town. Everyday I bike to work and enjoy seeing the rolling hills, beautiful fields, and cows. Yes, I bike past two fields filled with cows everyday on my day to work. I also bike past the border between France and Switzerland. It’s pretty fun because it is at the bottom of a hill and I go speeding across the border on my bicycle. It is a stark contrast between the US-Canada border crossing with guard posts, security cameras, and papers. It’s kind of funny because I always imagined that in Europe you were constantly asked for papers, mostly due to watching to many old war and spy movies. Where in America I thought going to Canada is a piece of cake. It turns out, the opposite is true, no one here asks for papers and now you need a passport to go to Canada.
