Wonderful connection

Salut!
For those of you who didn’t know, my mom spent a year in France and during her time in Montpellier she stayed with a host family. I decided to meet her, and after many phone calls between us we found a week-end to meet. That was last week-end, I met her. The sweetest and nicest woman ever. She showed me the house my mom spent her year and also a phone booth that my mom used a lot to call dad.

She lives in Lodève, beautiful little town. Got there on Friday and we just connected. On Saturday went to the market together and for lunch her friend invited us over for lunch. It was a gorgeous day out; we had lunch by the river. I had a great time and I am so glad that I met her.

Vacances

Salut,

Just came back from another break. It was with Stephanie and we did the south of France and Monaco. It was great and beautiful. It sad to say this is my last long vacation in France.

1st Stop AVIGNON

Avignon is beautiful and the weather was perfect. I had my first hostel experience and it was not bad.

Le pont d'Avignon

Palais des Papes

Arles
Exceptional beauty, if you ever come to France you must visit Arles.






Marseilles

2nd largest city in France and it’s a place of its own. That was our 3rd stop and to tell you the truth after visiting Arles, I found Marseilles way to busy. We spent 3 nights there and one night we stayed with my host mom niece and the other with a friend I met through my host family. By the end of the day I couldn’t walk any more. It’s pretty but different.

Aix en Provence

The home of Cézanne, it’s very beautiful

Last stop, Monaco

Glamorous place, it is something else. Because it was our last stop we took it slow. We visited the palais and other monuments. After that we were tired, we made it back to Grenoble on Saturday.

Montpellier « La ville ou le soleil ne se couche jamais »

Salut;

Oh yes, that’s where I was last week-end. I visited my friend Katie (friend from bethel and assistant). I was there from sat- Monday. Well when I got in Montpellier it was pouring rain, we decided to go to the mall. Next day it was sunny and beautiful, Katie gave me a tour of her beautiful city and we also went to see an exposition at the musée Fabre. I had a great time. view from the Corum
