about to spend 6 weeks in Arles, France for a study abroad program. Can speak French pretty proficiently but I've never actually been. What should I expect? I'm studying [spoiler]history[/spoiler].

I visited Metz two years ago when my then-gf was studying abroad in Saarbrücken. Holy fuck that city is practically Africa.
>>75725947
There was Le Pen rally in Metz and I saw a lot of whites in the live stream. If only France took goddamn racial and religious statistics.
>>75725736
No part of France is 'better' btw
>>75725984
Didn't Metz vote for Macron by 80%?

>80%
Fuck. It kinda sucks cause I really wanted to visit France when I was little but this board has ruined pretty much all of Western Europe for me. I'll just stick here in the suburbs.

>I'm studying history.
Holy kek
>>75726065
Metz is in northern France, near Germany.

Well, to be fair, a lot of Frenchies on here have told me that Black French are like Black people here. They can either be bro-tier or absolute ghetto garbage. I'm more worried about Gyps and Maghrebis desu

>i wouldn't go to france

>>75726065
It's ok Anon, if years of memes here made you afraid of Europe you are probably too sheltered in the first place to leave America
>>75726461
I plan on leaving America. I just don't plan on going to shitholes so France is off the list.
>>75726234
been to france for a long time and spent most of my time with minorities so i'm a bit of an expert on the subject, the 1st generation blacks are often cream of the crop but the 2nd generation are entitled subhumans, first generation maghrebis are bottom of the barrel lowlifes but the 2nd generation are very chill and keep to themselves but often the mental issues, also the women are whores.
>>75726535
what's not a shithole according to /int/?
>>75726535
You've always been in one
>>75725415
You will be in Provence, expect to meet some people a huge provençal accent. They like banter and they are a bit lazy. I know nothing about Arles, I'm living further east, but it's still in the P.A.C.A region and especially in the Bouches-du-Rhône so there's quite a lot of maghrebi immigrants. So some people happen to be quite racist there, but not everyone. There also isn't as much of black people as in Paris, much more maghrebis. Don't trust them any of them though, arab or african.
>>75725528
Culturally, southerners (or occitanians) are quite socialist, but not straight out commie. The south-east isn't as much socialist though. They have a lot of migrants so quite many of them voted nationalist. Still not enough though.
Also this picture is a huge meme, I can't believe you actually saved it.
>>75725736
no
>>75725984
>If only France took goddamn racial and religious statistics
They are forbidden.
Like OP, I will be studying in France this summer as well. What can I expect from Tours?
>>75727000
north korea tier
>>75726234
WTF is this shit?
>>75726954
Dordogne and Ariège were the only two departments outside of Paris to vote for the fucking commie during the first round.
I live near Arles.
The worst you can stumble upon would be the gypsies. Never trust a fucking gypsy.
Second, being south of France, there will be sandniggers everywhere. Most of them are not truly a problem, as long as you do not pose an easy gullible target. Just use common sense.
Wandering alone in the suburbs at night with expensive gear is of course asking for it.
So much for security, now the language.
There will be little english proficiency. Expect people be friendly with you without understading you. You will have to speak slowly with simple words for the common man. In the university it will not be a problem.
Expect french southern accent everywhere. That may be an advantage : in opposition to standard french, all sound will be pronunced (even the schwa),
