About a month from now, we get a "study week," which is a week of no classes. I figured this would be the perfect time to not study at all and go somewhere in Europe. Although I wanted to visit Spain, I know next to no Spanish. So that's out.
I do have an amazing command of the French language, thanks to three years of coasting on my sister's coattails at NDCL. Right now, I'm looking at either Paris, Marseille, or Montpelier. Marseille is my top option right now, but we'll have to see which flights are the cheapest :)
And so begins my blitzkrieg on the French language, relearning as much as I can this next month. Fortunately, Arlette is almost as good at French as she is at English, so I have a conversation buddy.

Madame would be sad to read that comment. I hope your next tag reads "much studying." And as I recall, your sister went to Spain, Italy and other assorted countries without knowing any of the language. I would vote for Paris.
ReplyDeleteMadame would be impressed that I made any effort learning French whatsoever.

ReplyDeleteA trip to Paris, excellent! And don't worry about not speaking Spanish or any other language. If the locals don't understand what you are saying in English, just repeat it louder and slower.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it will be Paris - Some French students talked me into it. And hooray for cheap flights.
