Here i am in Epinal, France. I definitely underestimated the beauty and size of this city. But the most interesting parts of this experience have been about the language barrier. within 10 minutes of my arrival at the home my host mother, my host brother, and i were poured over a french to English book trying to explain the word for cell phone.
This trip or year is going to be one of the most adventurous,fun, dramatic, embarrassing, and oddest years of my life. But its worth it, the french are very funny people and come to find out most stereotypes about them are wrong. I am very very excited to see more.
SO this is my first post from France, i start school next week so i will update once a week due to the excessive french reading and the academic torture i am not accustomed to. Please comment and ask questions, you have no idea how good my head feels when i don't have to answer in french and how simple it is to not have to think about every little word.
