First tourist destination in the world, - cock-a-doodle-doo! - France attracts and charms more than 80 million foreign visitors every year. The American statesman, Thomas Jefferson, once said: "Every man has two countries, his own and France.
When you are lucky enough to live in France, why not put yourself in the shoes of a tourist and discover the 551,000 km² of land that is as diverse as it is endearing.
