Here

I’m finally in Grenoble. It took a long time to get here, but the journey was pleasant, and I’m loving my home now.

The airplane over here was not bad at all. I sat next to another university student from Monterrey, Mexico, and we talked almost the whole plane ride (in French, English, and Spanish). Miguel came to France to go backpacking with his brother. He told me that his parents told him he was going four days before, so he just grabbed his school backpack and came over. I wish I could prepare that fast!

And the journey begins in four days...

If you're reading this, you probably know me and know that I'm going to be away for eleven months studying abroad.

I'm spending six weeks studying in a town in France called Grenoble, and then after that, I'll be spending several days in Nice, Cinque Terre, Florence, and Rome. After that few weeks, I'll be studying in Seville, Spain for several months, then another several months (hopefully, the application isn't even open yet) studying in Paris, France.
