Are You Turning Into a Francophile?

France: the country that houses the city of love and everything excellent from art, food, wine, and beyond. One of the most influential cultures in the world, it’s so easy to fall in love with France. You're bound to find something that you'd like to hold on to forever.

Even the Jewish representation in France is so fondly unique that it's an easy favorite if you want to spend your kosher holiday in an extraordinary way.

Those that experienced the French Paradox first-hand knows what it feels like to be entranced in the grace and beauty of France. Some even take it too far and call themselves Francophiles. This rather radical term was given an adventurer's twist. It's as if they've caught the lovebug for everything that's French.

Is the same happening to you? Let's find out.

Do You Find Joy in Moderation?

The French are strong believers of “quality over quantity”. This is true most especially when it comes to food. When French people eat, they eat long and well, but they rarely eat hefty amounts.

They love taking the time and savoring what's served on the table. Why consume a lot if the appropriate amount satisfies you in the same way, right?

How About a Natural Appreciation for Everything Beautiful?

Francophiles also have a very obvious appreciation for everything that's wonderfully and beautifully made. To them, every creation and creature possesses natural beauty and they are quick to notice these qualities from almost everyone.

If you’re a Jewish Francophile, you can go on one of those Jewish trips where you can take an immersive trip through your heritage. It's a chance for you to appreciate everything your ancestors have done and how they paved the way for the current generation to enjoy the life they have.
