French savoir-vivre

Sharing a meal is sharing what is essential for life: eating and drinking. It also means to honor the guest or simply share a moment of friendship. “Put an extra plate on our table …” is the motto of Lyon International.

Each culture expresses the same feeling, but in different ways; in France we very much appreciate the friendly atmosphere of a good  meal.

So what should you to when you’re invited?

- First, answer as quickly as possible to the family.
- Be on time for appointments.
- If you can’t make it, make sure to let your host know. Choking an invitation is a considered very rude to the family who invited you.

Remember that all families are happy to welcome you, they do it for free and they will be happy to keep in touch with you afterwards if you wish.
