Dial "The French Number" to ask a "Random French"

 

The headline is a mouthful, but the idea is simple: Have a question about France? Dial one number from anywhere in the world, and you'll be connected to a random volunteer French person who will try to answer your question.

The project is called "The French Number," and is modeled after a Swedish program started last year. The French version is launching with 1500 volunteers and expects 80,000 calls by December. All the volunteers speak English as well as French; many of them speak other languages as well.

"The French Number" is affiliated with the national tourism board and other organizations. It's being launched with commercials in a number of countries. For more information from TheLocal.fr, click HERE

The best part of every trip is realizing that it has upset your expectations
