That's cool. Je parle un peu de francais, et vous? Parisien, pas cadien, malheursement.

No, not yet. It will most likely be Parisien as well, since learning Cajun French would make the journey much more difficult.

There are some mild differences in vocabulary and pronunciation (the Cajun 'R' is way more difficult) but they're mutually intelligible.

Good to know! Where do you find people speaking Cajun French in Louisiana? We went to the Festivals Acadiens et Créoles a few months ago, the only time I heard French was in the music, no one seemed to use French during a conversation.

Mainly Lafayette for me. Vermillionville has French speakers as well. There are a couple of French meetups in the Baton Rouge area as well.
