Here\u2019s another look at a typical day in my life. I forgot to take a picture of breakfast, but today was yogurt and granola. I did a better job of taking pictures of my walk today though (which is probably far more interesting than a bowl of granola)!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Walking out the apartment building door this is what I see<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Onto the main road<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
If you can see the trees ahead in the distance that\u2019s where I\u2019m headed-it’s about a 15 minute walk in total<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Boulevard Vauban-where the university is<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Building most of the summer classes are in (I approach from the left side of the picture)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
These are the doors you have to scan your badge to get in (blue and green means go ahead, red means don\u2019t)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Scanning in<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Walking up the stairs to floor 3 (which is actually the 4th floor because in France the first floor is 0)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Observing a French class<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Pizza for lunch outside<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Tarte aux framboises for dessert-have to get my fruit in \ud83e\udd23<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After lunch I observed a literature class and then after class I went to the grocery store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Not the best picture, but the store was pretty busy and I was trying not to be obvious<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Then a friend messaged to meet up for a drink, so I dropped off my groceries and went out to see her. I just got an apricot juice and one thing I love about France is if you go to a bar and order juice, soda, anything non alcoholic they don’t bat an eye-the bar is a space for everyone to hang out (including kids) and so you order whatever drink you prefer and then you can sit for hours with just that one drink. I think it encourages people to be more social right after work and before they go home for dinner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then it was time to head home and make dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Trying to use up things that are left as I only have a few more dinners to eat in my apartment.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Pasta with tomato basil sauce and mozzarella balls<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Profiteroles-you can get much better versions at restaurants, but this is the grocery store version. They’re little cream puffs covered with loads of chocolate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After dinner, it was time to pack because I leave for Nantes Thursday morning and tomorrow we have an afternoon trip into Belgium and won’t be back until late. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
