Bonjour tout le monde! My pre-departure preparation is drawing to a close and with only 8 days of normal life left it's finally beginning to sink in. It's scary to think that in just over a week I will be halfway across the world surrounded by a completley new language, culture and family. Half of me is full of nervous excitement and the other half wants to hug my family and never let go. Even though I am scared to leave the amazing life I have in Darwin behind, I can't wait to begin my new life with my host family. This trip is an opportunity of a life time and I'm so lucky and grateful to have been given it.
I would like to give a massive thank you to all the people who have helped me prepare for my three month exchange in France. Firstly and most of all my family who have always been there to support and encourage me. Secondly and just as importantly Marie-Bénédicte Harrison who has been the most dedicated and wonderful french tutor and friend I could have ever asked for. I would also like to say a huge thank you to Ms Marcel-Hubert for being so incredibly helpful and kind. And last but not least all my friends who have always been there when I needed them. In Particular I would like to say a massive thank you to Brittany, Anna, Becky, Flippa and of course Vero. (For those who don't know Vero is my beautiful friend across the road who is on a 5 month exchange in Australia from Italy.) I am the luckiest person in the world and I honestly can not thank you all enough!
Awesome blog Georgie, you're going to have a great time. It's hard, as you already know, but it's worth it in the end. Love you girl, bon courage et bon voyage!
xoxo Becky
