To start off my blog of my trips and experiences in France, I have decided to commence recording this fine week of packing and preparation in Atlanta, Georgia.
Packing seems to be a very important part of the experience, and nowadays jetsetters have narrowed their views on what to bring and how much to bring with them on their escapes.
Well my mom scavenged the internet for packing lists for Europe...it's true minimalism is the way to go. For me, knowing that I will be in France for a month, that is much easier said than done.
So here I sit, a huge suitcase staring me down with nothing but shoes inside of it. I need to get to work.
Claire,
ReplyDeleteIf you have the shoes, you have everything--
toutes les choses necessaire! (Please tell me Mme. Robertson is not linked to your journal, because I will be using beaucoup de francaise tres mal; it is simply irresistable to me, as votre mere may attest; when I think of France and les gens francaises, all of my liberte, fraternite, et egalite come to the forefront, and I simply cannot help myself).
After all, it is le pays de ma naitre! [cue music from Les Mis: "Can You Hear the People Sing?"]
Love, Aunt T
Oops, that would be irresistible (no spellcheck on blogs)
