$849. As STA Travel Lady charged my Mater Card this afternoon, it became official. On September 20 I will set foot in France, homeless and (nearly) broke. But then I will devour a baguette, and all will be right in the world.
Wow... you bought your ticket already? I'm jealous. I was thinking about arriving on the 20-21... where are you going to be for the year? (PS - I noticed you're Cuban American. My boyfriend just spent three months studying in Cuba.)
Yup. But I'll need to buy a second roundtrip because I have to come home for a wedding. I'll be in the Nantes academie. You? What's your boyfriend studying in Cuba?
I'll be buying a second round trip (don't tell my bank account...) to come home for Christmas. I have a friend in Nantes I think, perhaps you'll meet up! The program my bf was with was technically studying Environment and Business, but he broke off and did some history stuff on his own with a prominent professor.
Do you have Facebook? There's a big group there and one specifically for Nancy-Metz too if you want to get to know them. And I think we should all be getting an email list of all the people in our academies soon. And I hear you on the no arrete making me insane and close to stroking out...
dw, I rarely use facebook. More of a myspace girl, really. But I am on there and have already signed up in the group for assistants and in the one for Nantes. There's also a forum, www.assistantsinfrance.com (not sure if you've come accross it yet), that's been really helpful.
Rei, thanks. I thought it was very diasporic of me.

No arrete yet, which is drving me crazy.
dw, it would be great to have any contacts in Nantes, particularly if I'm near that city. I don't know anybody in the region.
