    HI Bonnie, it’s the button inside almost every Parisian courtyard to open the front door. It’s often difficult to find and many new expats don’t know about it. Thanks for reading! jkw

    Btw, what is a “porte” (so I’ll know when I get to France)?

    David Lebovitz forwarded your blog to us. I love it; illustrations are hilarious. I’m a new fan.

    Haha! This is one of the first “X things I learned in France” lists that I completely agree with. You perfectly captured what it’s really like…. especially Porte Purgatory 😂

    Beautifully done. I love the baguette illustration. I didn’t believe my husband that a magic wand was une baguette magique in French. He learned magic wand in English a few years back in the Disney Store when shopping for our niece. He asked for a magic stick (when the 50 Cent/Lil Kim song was popular) and the sales guy laughed.
