GLORIOUS PARIS BEATS NEW YORK IN TOURISM, the most visited place on earth attracting over 200million visitors each year worldwide (and an additional 81million for the rest of France) and on that basis alone, French should by right be an international language alongside English!

​

Personally I am saddened by the number of homeless people in the streets of Paris and the worst part of it all, is to see French people living on the floor of their own city, a city that they should be proud of, their home.

​

Since my arrival (December 2017), it has been brought to my attention that gypsy groups come here by numbers, are homeless by choice and use their children (who are forced to sit on the floor all day often wrapped in a blanket), to extract money form people passing them by, crying poor. The children are later taut how to pick pocket and shoplift, the adults knowing too well that children in the state of France can not be criminally charged.

​

As a result of being outside all the time while looking for work fitting to my credentials, I’ve witnessed kids being made to sit by their parents all day on busy street corners while the parents beg for peoples money with cups in their hands stretched out and sad faces. Many have agreed that it’s not normal for children to sit in one place for prolonged periods without freedom of movement nor activities to stimulate their developing young minds. Being a mother myself and having raised two children single handily for sixteen straight years in Western Australia (who are now in their twenties), I can tell you one thing for certain, children do not sit in one place for more than an hour unmoved, you’d be lucky to get them to sit still during their meals, let alone on the side of the street all day from 8am till approximately 6pm. It was much to my disgust that at the end of the day, I witnessed a man from the group of people that I’m referring to, leave separately ahead of the women and children, who  also separated, and came back around with a brand new eight seater people mover van and picked them all up at opposite corners of the streets. The parents, using the kids as a tool to rob and fraud, which is child abuse. THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT LONELY.

​

Unfortunately the tourists get sucked in but you can’t blame the French locals for not stopping, who know too well this gypsy game of fraud? THIS IS NOT AROGANCE this is intelligence.

​

Yes gypsy’s are people too but so are the tourists who are robbed by them, leaving a sour taste in the mouths of our tourists who go home and tell of their experiences.

​

There are plenty of services available here in Paris for housing, food, clothing and related benefits, for parents caring for children who are prioritised to ensure living standards for families are sustained.

​

There are French people on the ground who are genuinely homeless and have been for a long time, who sit on the side of the pavement with a cup in front of them and struggle to make 10euro’s a day. They drink because they’ve given up and some are severely depressed. They have lost everything, their families have stopped talking to them and caring about them – it’s all too hard - they are alone.  At some point the temptation to join a new social circle of friends from the wrong side of the street was better than being alone and some took the plunge, just to travel a vicious downward spiral that ends in grief and more hardship. Now they think there’s no hope but to line up in lengthy queues each night for a bite to eat and sit at the side of the road with a cup in their hands asking people for loose change and restaurant vouchers.

Some of them are physically and mentally ill but others are just broken, bruised and confused and physically exhausted from the street life. Everyone is guilty of poor choices from time to time, some mistakes cost us money, some cost us things we can’t earn back but as long as there is God there is hope and where there is hope, there is light.

​

God has given me the courage to do what is right in accordance to his rule and it is right to rehabilitate people in need of our time, who like us were born innocent into this world with dreams and aspirations but were beaten by life. Life is a gift and everyone deserves to enjoy it without the worry of crime.

​

The French are very special people, they are of strong origins and highly intelligent. You only have to look at what they’ve done with Paris and read the history of Joan of Arc, the beauty and the love put into this AMAZING CITY has attracted a regular world wide audience. THE MOST VISITED COUNRTY ON EARTH.

 

…and just to briefly address the bullshit going on outside of France about this awesome community, about how arrogant the French are, IT’S ALL JELOUSY. THE FRENCH PEOPLE HAVE GOT HEARTS OF GOLD and when people stop running them down, they will see that!

 

The French people are highly adaptable and resilient, which are signs of intelligence, they have a strong sense for justice and love before they fight. This is the complete opposite to arrogance and it is my opinion that they need to be prouder (they are not proud enough).

​

It’s lucky for us English Speakers that the French people of Paris are awesome, and so is everything they’ve touched!

How lucky are the tourists, they get to come here, enjoy all the beauty and awe of Paris and on top of all that, the French people will even try and speak English for them even if they’re not good at it. When you go to countries like America and Australia, they only speak English, they don’t consider the French, yet English speaking tourists come to Prestigious  Paris and expect the French to conform to their language, overlooking that this is a NON ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRY.

​

THIS IS ENGLISH ARRAGONCE NOT FRENCH ARRAGONCE!

​

In a brief comparison to Australia, the French have given freely for all to enjoy, LIBERTY, EQUALITY AND FRATERNITY, acts of humanity that are still being fought for today by the Indigenous people of Australia - the Australian Government has stopped at his apology, which was only given because of a protest that gained international recognition, but funds to restore Aboriginal communities from a disgraceful history of genocide by White Australia was not granted. They are unfortunately a dying breed, the rightful owners of the Land Down Under. The highrachy of discrimination reigns. In fact Australia (my home land for which I hold dual citizenship), has been dubbed the most racist country on earth with banners representing an advertising campaign aimed at refugees that read, “you can not make your home on our land”. Australia’s beauty is stolen but the French created theirs from the ground up and for that, the French people deserve our respect!

What I would like to do with this new “TrentEsta Rehabilitation Programme”, is PUT FRENCH PEOPLE FIRST. They deserve our love and understanding.

​

As we speak, I’m drafting a six month rehabilitation programme for homeless people of Paris, (should I be successful in gaining sponsorships…) prioritising placement for French people before I accommodate for EU Nationals. What this means is, for example, if there are 264 places available for a six month programme and 250 French people apply and 250 EU Nationals apply (who also have a right to live in Paris as long as they are not breaking the law), priority placement will go to the French – 250 registrations will be taken and placed for the French People and the remainder 14 places will be make available to the others. There will be a selection criteria the ensure that all applicants are (a) homeless and (b) living in Paris legally. I want to put a Samsung Tablet in the hands of all homeless people registered for the above mentioned rehabilitation programme and make available vital resources on a consistent basis through a centre, to ensure everyone is fully equipped to re-enter the workforce post rehabilitation.

​

The people of Paris who are already involved in local charity organisations are doing an excellent job catering for homeless people, from daily meals and distribution of unsold goods, to clothing and weekly showers, however, we need more and this would without a doubt be a compliment to what’s already going on – a much need addition combatting the core contributing factor of all addiction related problems, “LONELINESS”.

​

With regards to sponsorship, I’m seeking a minimum of 10000euros from at least 10 local businesses to put into a trust fund, where all expenditure will be made public, to make it happen.
