La Vie en France
I arrived in Metz last night and am thrilled to be here! The city is beautiful, the people are very friendly and I’m conversing with them in French without much difficulty, and my dorm already feels like home. While last month I felt like a confused outsider, I already feel like I’m blending in well here - this morning, somebody pulled over to ask me for directions, and even though I didn’t know the answer (lets be honest, I don’t even know how to give directions in the US), I was pleased that I could understand his question and respond.
This is such a refreshing change of scenery after the 2 months I spent in Central America. More details on my life here to come in future posts, but I just wanted to include a few pictures of my dorm!
My work area, already decorated with a poster of the Eiffel Tower.
Kitchen, already stocked up with fresh vegetables and bread from the grocery store.
My bed.
