Le Premiere Semaine

Bonjour tout le monde!!! I am finally settled in and will start informing you about the happenings of my life (well, most of them ; ). I got back from Paris yesterday and the French immersion has truly begun. My roomate can only speak a little English and the only person I have met that is fluent in English refuses to speak it to me! (the French way of course) Its great though because now I will definitely learn.

I am living with Romaric's cousin Hono, her boyfriend Cedric, the black lab Titune, the grey cat Mona, and two "Nemo" clown fish. We are in a small town so they have a big house and it is very comfortable. I am so lucky to be living with such nice people!!! They drive me all the time wherever I need to go and are so so nice!! Already they have taken me to the fair, zoo, Belgium, Ikea, McDonalds, and 4 pet stores!
side note: the McDonalds here is AMAZING...well designed, beautiful interior, and delicious desserts!

The food is unbelievable!! All of the steryotypes are indeed true...coffee, cheese, and lots of bread. We have dessert and coffee in the middle of the day...today was a strawberry tartlette. Yesterday, hot chocolate and brownie. Everyone has been really nice (as far as I can tell...can't really understand much) and I have met lots of Hono's friends!!

Ok, enough for now...time to watch Star Academie (the coolest show in Fr.). Stay tuned!!
