Premier Post
Bonjour from France!
I've been in France for a little over a week now and I'm finally starting to blog! So far, everything has been going really well. My host mom, Mme Salmon, has been very welcoming. She is retired and has never been married or had kids. She does, however, have a lot of family in the city. There is another host student living with us, named Jordan. She arrived a week before I did, and leaves at the end of this month. She's with a group from Utah that has about 40 students. The Institut is only about a fifteen minute walk, which is nice. So far, class hasn't been too difficult. We're mainly learning about France's culture and the city we're in, Tours. We only have class for two hours a day, so we've been able to explore the city a lot. I absolutely love it here. It may not be as exciting as a big city like Paris, but it's perfect for what we're here for. There's so much to do and see. It's everything an old European city is expected to be, with added modern touches of both architecture and the way they live. I promise I'll start taking and posting photos and more details soon!
Until then,
Diana
