My Room

Here are some photos of my room. I spent my first day cleaning the room and unpacking. I now have a table/desk between the door and my bed, which makes it a little more cluttered but helpful. In the second photo you can see the glass door to my shower. Next to it is my stove- 2 burners, one of which I can't use because it blows the fuse every time. Then there's a tiny counter space and my sink. There's a little closet next to that. On the right of the door, there's another closet. It's great and simple though the tile floor is cold, even when the heat is on.

Here's one of the best parts of my room: the view!



In the afternoon I went down to Madame F's apartment for some coffee. I was asking her questions about the neighborhood and she said she would show me around. I mentioned that I might want to take a French class and she insisted that I go to the Alliance Francaise. I expected to just pick up some information but within an hour I had taken a placement test and was enrolled in a three hour class, three days a week.

Our tour of the neighborhood turned out to be a tour of half of Paris but it was great. I got to practice my French for three hours while Madame F pointed out her favorite places.
