Villefranche, French school farewell...
29th April
It’s ironic that Eirin entitled her last post ‘no more tears’ because today I cannot stop crying. Yesterday was my last day of language school and I had to say goodbye to almost everyone and today I had to say goodbye to Carlos, Hose and Yuki, 3 more fellow students whom I had grown close to over the last month.
There were definitely tears, but I guess I should tell you why, I am slack but my time was really amazing and I didn’t have the time to really keep you all up to date as much as I should have.
12th May 2006
So while I’m on the train after hopefully have a bit of time before my battery runs out I’ll try and continue something which was a dismal post or 2 of my time in Villefranche. It was amazing – and I’m sure if I keep telling you that you’ll continue not to care. Most of all it was fantastic because I learnt a lot – thanks Stephan-Magalie-Julien (my teachers) and because of my lovely friends thanks – Yuki, Carlos (+Michael), Jasmine, Roberta, Samantha, Stephan (again), and the good natured attitude of everyoine who was there – despite the mental grilling everyday.
There were excursions to Nice, St Paul, Turretts-sur-loup, Grasse and to the theatre as well as small trips on the weekend with only a few people to Nice, Monaco, Turbie, Eze Village and some other small mountain towns I forget the name of. Villefranche was beautiful and though I swear it had more restaurants than people in it we never got tired of it. (Or eating out for that matter!).
It’s really hard to describe how the month flew, but it did, and now it kind of seems surreal, and it’s only been 2 weeks. Maybe it was a dream it was a little bit too perfect? I never laughed so much, at so much chocolate, cheese and wine (yes… until the end of the bottle… Carlita).
