Hello All,
Update: I am alive! The voyage here wasn't horrible. it was long, but it could have been worse I suppose.
I
have already done so many things with my host family. In an attempt to
list them: gone sailing, gone to the beach house, been ice skating, bike
riding along a canal commissioned by Napoleon, bike tour of town, and
toured the local castle. With Rotary I have already been to a few
events, the most notable being my orientation at Le Pouliguen. Le
Pouliguen is the largest beach in Europe, and it was awesome. There I
had my first crepe in France! And, it was with a frenchman might I add.
I was taken there by a local, haha.
School, oh school. French school is very, very
different. After, numerous visits to the administration I believe I
have finally settled all my classes. I feel like this level of school
here is just like the AP version of everything back home. That being
said I am in the AP Economics French Version. Unfortunately, I decided
to not take AP Econ...Anyway, I will just have to read teh textbook once
I get it.
My host family has been super awesome! They are always really helpful and fun. So, that makes life easier.
