Arrivée

I am in Paris. I am alive. I will update more when I am not at a crappy internet kiosk in the hostel. Highlights of the day: funny taxi driver, being good at French, buying cell phones with Vaune. Lowlights of the day: many more.

Le départ

Today I leave for France. Following in Erin vs. Paris' footsteps, and also due to suggestions from family members, I have decided to take a break from packing to create a public blog to catalog my adventures in wine country.

Those adventures begin at 6:45 this evening, when I board American Airlines flight 0146 to Paris. I will spend a few days in Paris doing orientation, and then go to Angers for a month to study at the Centre International d'Etudes de Français (International French Studies Center), before returning to Paris in October for classes at the Sorbonne and the Institut Catholique.

Stay tuned! I will update again once I am in Paris.
