Summary of Mark Greenside's (Not Quite) Mastering the Art of French Living

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I start reserving my car in January, when I’m feeling most optimistic about the Giants and least optimistic about the Giants and a new year. I always call Rob, who has his own agency and always manages to get me a discount greater than everyone else’s.

#2 In France, people are used to lines. They don’t understand why Americans are upset when they have to wait in line. I was lost for thirty minutes in the airport, and when I finally found the TT phone, I was directed to Renault, the car rental agency.

#3 I pick up the phone and speak with a man who says yes before I can even ask if he speaks English. He takes me to the van, puts my bags in the back, and races to the car rental location. I walk into the Renault office, and the lady there speaks English.

#4 I had driven from Renault to the Total station, following the directions on Mapquest. I was going to Senlis because it was only 20 miles away from the highway exit and avoided the Périphérique, a 36-kilometer bypass loop that circles Paris.
