Language
Many people in
the bigger European towns and cities speak English, especially airports,
railway stations, hotels and restaurants.
As a very general
rule, the more rural it gets, the less English spoken. I've only
a very rudimentary knowledge of the French language but haven't
yet been in a situation where I couldn't make myself understood.
Eventually!
The
more you TRY to speak French, the more French people will accommodate
your failings. With a lot of wild gesticulation and charade you
will usually get the information you need and will have enjoyed a
great time in getting it. It's all part of
the adventure.
