A Minute to say Bonjour

---

Hello Everyone:

Please note that i am typing on a french comp and the letters are in diff places.

We are currently in Nimes and leave for barcelona tomm. London was amazing as was Paris. Normandy was great n it was so emotional to walk on DDay beaches n in Bayeux *the first town liberated. U can almost C the american n british tanks in the streets. The weather has been crazy... cold most days...warm others.

I dont hv much time to go into details today ... as there are so many fabulous details to tell. Below is a bit of an overview thus far:

Favorite places:

Paris -

• The Latin Quarter - its packed with bars and every type of restaurant one can imagine. the owners of the restaurants stand outside to try to convence people to come in. Its all lit up with neon lights.
  
• The Louvre - one need not even go in. the outside is spectacular.
  

Bayeux - normandy -

• Dday beaches n memorial - it was great to be there n the memorial made me cry. (of course, i cried, when dont i?)
  
• The streets in Bayeux - they see, unchanged sinced before wwII.
  
• our hostel in Bayeux - an old castle like building. we meet some amazing peeps.
  

Blois - Loire Valley

• The Castel of Chenanceux - this castle has only been influenced/built/changed by women. it is a site to see. (although we ,issed é trains to get to it)
  

We jst arrived in Nimes, so no updates on that as of yet.

Favorite Foods-

• Pao qo chocolat - bread crossant with chocolate and almond past from a little backery near our hotel in paris. Simply the best. we were addicted
  
• Pao ao fromage et jambon - from the same bakery, but with cheese and ham.
  
• Crape with goat cheese n mushrooms (in nor,andy) - super yummy
  
• Salade with salmon, egg, shrimp, lobster, & more in Blois.
  

Lessons Learned -

• you dont really NEED ,uch to survive.
  
• Italian men think french men are gay.
  
• French men hate italian men.
  
• Most french are not as rude as people say.
  
• Some french are as rude as people say.
  
• Tati speaks even better french after 2 Brugs or 2 1664s.
  
• Tati loves Canadiens.
  
• French men and Italian men find brazilian/americans attractive 1 they r not shy to say so.
  

You would all be happy to know that i hv been rugin it up & have been a super trooper. Luiza even asks me to slow down sometimes. I am not being a little princess. I am now, and will for now on forever be, a TRUE nomad. 😊

I will try to upload pics as soon as possible.

kisses to all,

Tati
