Hello all!
I am 12 days away from leaving for Paris! Boy do I have a lot to do! Mostly pack all my clothes and other things like chargers and adapters. I am so anxious/excited to go. I still am in denial, like maybe this all isn't happening. I guess when I'm on an overnight flight to Paris, it might hit me! Anyway, this blog exists for me to process and chronicle my year in Paris, but also to share my experience with friends and family! So here are some details: I will be living alone in a studio apartment in the Marais district of Paris. It's about a 20 minute Metro ride to my NYU Paris "campus" near Notre Dame in the 5th arrondissement. I will be arriving then moving into my apartment. After some travel in Switzerland, I will return to have a week of RA training. There are no dorms but my job will primarily be for student events and field trips as well as crisis management. After that week, I will say "au revoir" to my parents and have a little downtime before my Orientation for school begins. So needless to say, I will be pretty busy! Once I get into the swing of things, I will have evening classes Monday-Wednesday (4 courses total) and possibly a teaching internship a few days a week. I am hoping to get to travel weekends as I did not have much opportunity last time I was abroad. I would love to go to Oktoberfest again, and hope to get time in other places in France, Spain, Belgium and Denmark! These next 2 weeks will be crazy but I will use this blog for pictures and updates! Thanks in advance all you readers!
Michelle
