Wow. To be honest, I had totally forgotten about this website. My new-found unemployment has me trawling through long forgotten parts of the internet, and lo, here I am. Looking through the list of goals I set myself the last time I came here (two years ago…more maybe?), it is quietly heartening to see that I have accomplished some of them. Regarding France, I have now been there three times, can you believe. Strasbourg, Lille and Paris, all during the dying months of 2012 and while 2013 is in her infancy. The ‘mystic’ if you can call it that, no longer applies, I don’t view La République with any sentimentality really, but the food is really fucking good. 3 months ago

My mother studied French in her high school days and has always wanted to visit the country but it never came to fruition. It is therefore a dream of mine to visit France with my mother and to learn a bit of French beforehand. 7 months ago

Paris is amazing! 7 months ago
