If you ask for CnC then try to be a bit more understanding about it when it's given to you. However if you disregaurd it like that people will be more hesititant to give u some.
I'm not saying you can't ever shoot flowers. What I was saying is you can do that anywhere. Why not take france for it's culture and try to get some shots of the landscape or something. And if your gonna be there for awhile, then go into paris with your mom for a day, Watch out for pick-pocketers and have a blast. If you're still stuck on flowers, i reccomend Versailles.
France is one of the most well known places for photography, it's practically legendary. Daguerre and Neipce' shot there while developing the first types of chemical printing. I have a hard time believing that in france the most interesting thing you can find is flowers.
That's all i was trying to say. Take this with a grain of salt and maybe keep it in mind next time you are shooting.
