Life in France so far

Listening to: The Stone Roses

Well, here we are.
The start of week 5 here in Besançon!
So far, so good.
Emily and I travelled down with our parents (joy) in the car, and got the ferry across from Dover.
With a couple of stops at our favourite places, we managed to get to Besançon in just 3 days.
The city itself is beautiful, and we know our way around town pretty well.
Last week, Emily and trekked up to the Citadel. Absolutely knackering, but well worth it for the view!


Up until this past week, we've had beautiful weather. Its felt a little bit like we're in limbo, not really sure what time of the year it is. While the rest of Europe plummeted into winter, we went back to summer!
But finally Autumn has caught up with us, making the landscape all the more beautiful.




  

We've made a few good friends here and at the Uni, especially with the American girls on our floor - our new best friends!
(sorry Andrea!)

Uni work is going okay, if a little slowly. But nothing we can do about that until all the classes start.
I've taken up Photography, Engraving and Bookbinding. I'm hoping to pick up as many skills as possible, to really push what I can do with my designs. 
...
Until next week then
