Off with a Bang

Bienvenue! As most of you probably already know, I'm headed to France to study for six weeks! I believe a fair number of you are familiar with my blog from my last French adventure, and welcome back :) Currently I am sitting in the Charlotte airport, a little antsy because I should be on my way to Detroit already but really how could my trip go off without a hitch so instead I'm waiting to get on a plane to Boston in a little while. It's a long story and I'm really excited for this trip so I don't want to dwell on the bad stuff! I was incredibly lucky to get a seat on a new flight and even have my bags rerouted with me, because I could really have been SOL.

It's been a crazy few weeks getting ready for this trip, and as I finally have a few minutes to relax I really can't believe I made it! If any of my darling friends reading this are thinking about doing their own study abroad, all I can say is prepare ahead!! I had clothes set out about a week before I left, and I must have went back and added new things and decided that I didn't need others about twenty times. Also don't try to cram it all in one bag. I acquiesced to checking a second bag which definitely made my life easier, even though I had to pay $100 for my second bag (which Delta does not tell you, by the way).

I'm going to keep this short and sweet, I can't wait to write all about Pau, my new city!

A bientot,

Jillian
