Diversity

The Paris city has so much diversity in its population which is incomparable to the places I have been before. There all kind of skin colors. One south American I talked to turned out to be Indian. One Indian I talked to was Sri Lankan. And an Indian floormate is always thought of as an Italian by the French people here.

I have seen Indians, Blacks talking in French, and even among themselves. There are so many different faces in the city Metro that it is impossible to mark anyone as of a given nationality. Paris is truely a global city. The people are cultured and offer their seat to the needy. Help women carry heavy weight up the metro stations. They even offer to share the monthly pass with anyone who wants to enter the stations without a ticket. People are good but the trouble is that they only want to talk in French. :)
