Being identified as Australian in France is really significant.
One of my all time most treasured travel experiences was two years ago, when with my female friend, at one of the large railway stations in Paris, obviously struggling with working out how to get to a small town past Bordeaux, with VERY unhelpful people at counters. We were very tired and must have looked it, as a little old lady came up to us on the platform, asked where we were from, and when informed, instantly hugged us both!
It made our day, took away all the stress, and I still get a warm glow when I think of it.
I Wish I could thank her and find out her story.
