Just got back from France (Reims) last night! It was really good... I went with some people from school, and it was generally to work in some random French place in order to practice the language, experience culture etc. There was stuff to do and places to go every single night as well which was really fun!

Back to routine now though... but I did have a brilliant time.

Aww, welcome back Ash. Glad you had a good time.

Sophii3x · 18-02-2007, 12:21 PM

*screams* ASH your back!!

Did you enjoy yourself and was there any fit french boys out there?

Bells · 18-02-2007, 12:24 PM

Thanks you two!
I went out every night... got to drink quite a lot of alcohol every single day - it's interesting how everything's so easy to get a hold of in other countries in Europe!!! And I've never done that before, not get drunk... but get drunk every day for a week.

And yeah Sophie there were!!! Some were a bit overly pervy though, lol.

Oh My God Ash!

I didn't even know you went to France, No one tells me anything lol.

You had a good time?

Bells · 18-02-2007, 12:26 PM

Eeeeeeeeeeeee it was really amazing, actually surreal!

Sophii3x · 18-02-2007, 12:29 PM

Glad you had a good time! I want to go to France now if it's easy to get alcohol

French boys are nice

When i went to France i didn't really have chance to try my french as they all wanted to try out there english on me!

Northern France... They are naughty up north, they had a right old laugh at my expense and sent me to the wrong terminal so i nearly missed the flight!

Princess · 18-02-2007, 12:39 PM

TWIN!!!!!! *runs and hugs* You're back!!

Bells · 18-02-2007, 12:40 PM

Yeah you're right Tanser, a lot of them do speak English and want to practice at times... but I was shoved in a workplace where none of the people working there could speak any English at all really - apart from one!

And OMG yeah that reminds me!!! Me and my friends asked for directions so many times... and kept being caught up by weird men and weird people and given wrong directions. Took us about an hour walking round in circles until we got to the place we wanted to go to!

Never been to the south of France though.

So I'm guessing it probably is just the people in the North!

I wouldn't have minded but the baggage people in Orly broke my suitcase so i had to carry it as apposed to dragging it, plus it was like 30 degrees outside so i wasn't the dryest person in the place and then they send me like a mile to another terminal at Charles De Gaule... A helpdesk man went mad at me for speaking in english to him. So i wasn't a happy bunny and eventually found an english man i recognised from my flight into the airport... so i followed him!

Northern France wasn't the most welcoming of places...

Sophii3x · 18-02-2007, 12:49 PM

YEYYYYY my cousins are twins

Bells · 18-02-2007, 12:51 PM

Aww bless, you just got unlucky Tanser haha, some of the people I was with were really nice... but then they were speaking fast fluent French so they might have been dropping in the odd curse whilst speaking and I wouldn't have known.

Seriously though, some are mean yeah, (not to mention creepy) but at the same time I met really friendly people and I generally did have an ace time. Reims is really differently set out... the buildings are different, and with it being the Champagne region you have special castles and cathedrals... and you get to try out champagne lots! (as well as other drinks too, of course). I suppose part of my fun came from the group of people I went with however - but I'd still recommend the north of France to people!

PLUS... it's not far from Paris either, and I

Paris.
