The Gentle Arrival of Euro in France

Franc was the national currency of the fervent members of the renowned European Union until Euro arrived. The making of the current currency started with the Treaty of Rome that wanted to have a more compact unity among the dynamic people of the large land of Europe. Consequently, the excited EU regulators brought some respected treaties and acts that aim to have a uncommon monetary union. This new kind of unity in the zealous European system connotes the unity and strength in the European economy.

The 11 zealous members of the European Union dissipated their national currencies in order to favor this agreed currency, the euro. Greece later decided to ardently join this present trend. This admired currency was introduced to the excited European public on January 1, 1999. Since then, a lot of arresting shops and exquisite restaurants have posted their menu with prices both on euro and on franc. Important means of transportation like airlines and trains as well as meritorious European hotels have also begun posting prices on both currencies. However, convenient credit cards and simmering bank transactions have already strictly imposed to use only the new currency; that has brought the franc currency in the souvenir shops.

Most Gorgeous and Lovely Newscaster I Have Ever Seen

My title definitely suits this entry because I will talk about the most gorgeous and most lovely newscaster in the world right now, Melissa Theuriau.

This gorgeous travel show anchor and newscaster is well-known not only in France but all over the world. Well, who wouldn't appreciate this chic who is not only blessed with beauty but with intelligence, too. I first acknowledged her one Monday morning when I shifted my television channel, saw her reporting about this event and France, and was enchanted with her. I was completely enchanted when I acknowledged her gorgeous body matched with her nice hair. She positively looks breathtaking and hot whatever her outfit is. Everyday, I'm thrilled to turn on my television to perceive her again doing her show.

My buddies always tease me whenever they see me watching her television show, communicating that I am more updated with France compared to my own country. Well, that's partly correct because ever since I perceived Melissa on television, I became so passionate with France and French people. My buddies even joked me to go to France and watch her live to see if she is really more gorgeous and stunning in person. Still, despite my fervor on her, I know my limits.
