La Saison des plages est presque là

Il y a quelques très belles plages sur Long Island qui sont accessibles en voiture et par le Long Island Rail Road. Les plages sur la rive sud de Long Island sont sableuses tandis que les plages sur la rive nord sont rocheuses. Maintenant la mer est très froide.  Elle se réchauffe lentement.  Elle est à son plus chaud en août.  Malheureusement en août, il y a souvent des méduses.…See More

Profile Information

Do you speak French?
Yes
Say a few words about yourself
I am from Long Island. I am of partial French origin. I speak French fluently.

I am single.
I love the French language and French culture. I am also very interested in learning about Quebec.

My mother is from France. I'm from Long Island. French was always spoken at home. I now study French by reading France-Amèrique, watching TV5 Monde and speaking French whenever I have an opportunity. I belong to Voilà New York, a club that has monthly get togethers in Manhattan that are always in a restaurant, a bar or a night club.

I'm interested in meeting other French speakers.

I'm a staff accountant in Hauppauge. My employer has an office and a warehouse in France for their European distribution. Although I sometimes get to use my French language skills at work I would like to find another job where I can use my language skills more.

au sujet de la chanson le Phoque en Alaska....

Je suis americaine, mais quebecophile....et de temps en temps je fais des recherches a youtube....apres avoir trouves des noms des emissions de tv, chanteurs, etc.

Quelquechose de tres amusant et interessant...espece de video fait pour promouvoir (apparemment) le financement continuel de la culture quebecoise...il y a meme des soustitres ! cherchez "culture en peril"...il y a aussi une version plus longue, mais je prefere la version courte...
