Brice is a 45-year-old French executive who has lived in Spain for 24 years. Married to a Spanish woman, he works in a financing company in Madrid.

“As I only speak French with family, I sometimes get stuck on certain words that I look for in French during professional meetings with France, sometimes I do literal translations into Spanish,” he says. When he returns to the country, the French take him for a native of the country of Cervantes with his accent and congratulate him on his French.
