Inter-Hotel Le Sevigne Rennes

I went just one day to Rennes. I thought it was really pretty since all of the houses are made of
rough stones, des maisons bretonnes typiques. Aussi, les maisons sont faites
toutes un peu croches, ca donne un petit style que j'aimais bien.



Et oui effectivement, il fait beau plusieurs fois par jour. It does rain a LOT.
There is mainly what is in every french city, bars, restaurants and shoe shops!

Been chopping some wood for the fire for the last 2 days with ayms cousins and family. 1 of ayms cousins has an old merc he doesnt need, so he has told us we can have it.
Its gonna cost qbout 400 euros to get in insured, mot and on the road, but im hoping rose and mickou will come and split the costs with us.
Petrol to tunisia through spain and africa will cost about 300 euros so its not too bad, hoping to get work in south of france next week to fund it.

... a new town or city is far more compelling than grannies lovely soup. The plan is to move on in the next few days, possibly meeting up with my friends Rose and Mickou (sp) if we can get work along the way.

So gonna sign off for now, hopefully find some work on the internet and the next post will be from spain. Adios amigo!

Unfortunately the fairy tale turretts and cobble streets failed to live up to expectation and seemed to lack any ambiance. This was probably not helped by us arriving at lunchtime when but everything was shut - French siesta time. After wandering around the deserted streets ...

Famed as one of the best preserved medieval towns in France or so says the Lonely Planet, the old town seemed like it had been swallowed by the new. We had our first crepe and enjoyed it as we wandered through the old cobbled stone streets which became more and more rewarding. We stumbled upon the local young un's hang out which was the city walls. The views looked down onto ...

... vertical on the diagonal line with one other person, everyone else went over the oxer that kept getting higher until it was over three feet. It took me a while to get my horse going. It would have taken less time had I of followed another person, but I did not want to end up going over the oxer. After a while my horse realized I wanted to canter to the jump and then started cantering for me. The other person kept ...

... my first final this coming Thursday in my written expression course. I can't believe that I'm down to two more classes for all my Thursday and Friday classes and then three for all my other courses. Crazy! Enough on my interesting academic life, here are some exciting things have happened to me or just adventures and stories to tell. Last Saturday, I went to see "Be kind, Rewind" with three of my friends. The sun was out and it was warm (around 73 degrees). The movie was in its ...

... of the city before returning to France. I´ve decided to take the last weekend to relax around the city before I get too busy with finals. I´m excited for the month, praying that it goes at a decent speed and that all my travels and the travels of others goes smoothly. All of my love to everyone! Thank you for your devotion to this blog, for reading and knowing how I am. I´d love to hear how you are all doing too! My exciting life doesn´t reign over yours! Take Care. À bientôt.

... but that I, sadly, was not an avid consumer. We had an apple tart for dessert with a petit café to wake us up. Funny story with that, I think almost my entire host family is either taking a nap or watching TV. I'm probably the only one fully awake. I'm sure you're all wondering how my first official week in Rennes was. So here you go, it was a very good week but there were moments of frustration, stress and overall exhaustion. I had classes at the Franco-American institute with ...

... mecs ; à un certain moment, Ariane et PL vont jaser dans le couloir (PL me confiera un peu plus tard qu'il a bip bip bip bip), et drôle de hasard, nous allons tous les quatre nous coucher en même temps, dépassé trois heures. Pendant la nuit, Pierre-Luc, qui s'est couché complètement paqueté, me jettera littéralement hors du lit, et il est lui-même indélogeable. On finira par en rire... Ça provoque des réorganisations majeures dans notre lit à cinq tout au long de la nuit.
