Hello!
So this is the first weekend that we have had in Nantes since last weekend we toured the castles. Last night I went out to dinner at a crepe place and I had a galette with warm goat cheese (normally I really don't like goat cheese, but it's really good here!) and a crepe with Nutella. So good! I also felt like a little kid because I ordered hot chocolate with my dinner and most everyone else who got a drink got something alcoholic... Haha. After that, we went to a bar and some of us got drinks (I had some white wine) and it was really fun! All of the IES students were feeling the frustration of speaking French all of the time so we kind of gave in and spoke English. I won't lie, we all learned more about each other last night from talking in our native language than we have in the past one and a half weeks. It's crazy, you don't realize how little you can say in a different language until you can only speak that language. If that makes any sense at all. But again, it was so much fun and it was nice to be more relaxed with our free time and speak English. Anyways... good start to the weekend, and today's plans are going shopping while the "soldes" are still going on!
Miss you all, and I hope that everyone's semesters are off to a good start! My classes start this week...
