Later that day I had a pain in my foot/ankle that IRead More →

Hey it’s Hannah I think it is important to give a first hand opinion and experience about the last few months . A Few months ago in France we went in to lockdown because of covid19 . This meant that we had to do distance learning online , It has been a roller coaster with it’s up and downs . Lets start at the beginning .Lessons didn’t start until two weeks later .When we started, we were working every day, mostly 8:30 starts as well as some homework to give in .  I enjoyed  it but sometimes I found it a bit stressful and boringRead More →

Hey it’s Hannah Today is fathers day (Fête des Pères) . as a one of 5 children , we celebrate fathers day everyone with a cake and some presents .

Hello it’s Hannah here !!!!!!😃 So you might be wondering what the french school system is ? Having lived in France for 5 years now I know how it works first Hand . the difference between the English school system and the french school system is at  secondary school “au college” and  college “au lycée” There is only 4 years in secondary school “college” in France compared to 5 in England .

Hey it’s Hannah here !!!!!!😃 All in all, going to a French school was an interesting experience that I have never experienced in my like. There were ups and downs like any other school, but I had to face the problem of the language barrier. Nevertheless, I found myself enjoying it for the most part.
