Hello from Montpellier!

---

Hello everyone! It is my first official day here in Montpellier: Arriving here went well, it was a long train ride but the scenery was pretty. Madame Goodman met me at the platform. She is very nice and everyone I live with is very nice. There is Madame Goodman; and then 3 other students who are living there also. One is another American who is studyig at the univeristy and she is from North Carolinna. The two others are French; one is 20 and the other is 16. At the house we speak only French; which is great for me. They are all nice and helping me fit in.

There are 3 other students who have arrived in Montpellier at the same time as me and they are who I will be studying with etc: They are all very nice. And most of the time we try to speak french together.

Montpellier is a cool city from what Ive seen so far: The apartment I live in is right in the center of town and very nicely located. I dont start classes till the 21 february qnd theyùll be testing us next xeek to see our level of french: wish me luck!

Voila; ive about had it with the french keyboard so I will go now!

A bientot!

wooo
Hey girlie! I can't even tell you how exciting this is, even for me, and I'm not even there. That must be fun living with french students in your own little apartment. This makes me want to catch a plane, ...like now! It's crazy that you don't start classes until the 21st. Hopefully, you're taking that free time to meet those hot frenchmen! Of course, I'm only partially kidding, but you know. Anyway, I'll catch ya later in your next blog entry!

Bonne Chance? Bon Chance?
