Bad gateway

Eww. I am officially no longer considering Maine as a potential state to move to. Also to be clear, this is because of the French language thing not the African immigrants. I briefly worked at a bakery in Tucson (Arizonia) that employed a bunch of Sudanese immigrants, like straight off the boat. They were so fascinating and so much fun to work with.

Probably can't handle the awesomeness.

Maine demographics are really interesting. Makes sense they'd be a spot where an immigrant community could flourish.

It's bizarre to me that it seems to have extended to real life. People seem to think French/Parisians are snobby and rude, which in my experience isn't true at all.

I'd go just for the free French classes. By that I mean engaging conversations with immigrants. Seems kinda nice actually.

Worked with a woman from Ivory Coast (not called that). I just adored her accent.

Ahem,...(Me looking northwest and east of Maine)....
You know, there are literally two Canadian provinces (Quebec and New Brunswick) a relatively short drive away filled with millions of French speakers. Not like it's that rare of a thing, just saying.
