... so good. She can read it very well. I also realised that they don't have the sound 'th' in French, so they have difficulty with words like 'the, these, that', whiwh is hard because it is so common in English. And if yiu think abou it the way you form the sound with your tounge between your teeth, it is very strange. I also got to hear her play some instruments. She plays the trombone and the accordion which was fun to hear.
Then we went to a small restaurant wich is ...

I spent a nice day with Daniel. He took me to have a look at the castle that overlooks the town, it is made from a kind of red rock whiwh comes from a nearby mountain.
He also drove me up to the top of one of the mountains where we walked to the top of another hill to take a look at a statue commemorating Jean 'D Arc. I was also treated to a piece of pie- a sweet pie- covered in these purple berries which the restaurant is famous for. There were few people around ...

... worse tactics by pretending that they are collecting for the deaf and disabled. I hate them so much and I now get this feeling of vindictive pleasure everytime I say no.
There was this one instance outside the train station when I was approached by this man giving out newspapers, I told him I only spoke English. He then replied 'oh you are English'. He then showed me a picture of his daughter and asked if I could give him ...

Après 6 semaines de ballade et de commerce (non-équitable!) en tanzanie, me voici de retour à la maison! Pour quelques semaines seulement puisque je repars début mai, en Afrique du sud cette fois... youpi! Trouvez quelques photos de Zanzibar et de mon safari! Biz à tous! Man'U

... and work, me from doing nothing but eating subway.  We had a nice Sunday lunch with Marion's extended family and I think I coped okay. 40% of the people there spoke some English. I had to count how many places to set in French in front of everyone and out loud and I smashed it to pieces. We spoke of Australian actors and animals over lunch, I even got to say "G'day" a couple of times.  Marion's Grandfather is a big deal over there. He is an artist who has worked for the ...

... in our disposal; our thumbs. That's right, we hitchhiked! Well sort of, we payed and it was pre-arranged but it was a strange driver in a strange car driving us from Paris to Nancy, so I'm chalking it up!  We were picked up from a tube station at the edge of town and were met by our driver. He was wearing a matching tracksuit and didn't speak English. Of this I was glad, he didn't have much going on upstairs. Because ...

... véritablement préparé, nous nous sommes contentés du strict minimum, un visa pour la Russie et un hébergement pour nos premières nuits moscovites chez Loic et Macha, cousin de maman habitant la capitale russe. Pour le reste, nous aviserons sur place et espérons que le guide mongol nous fera une ristourne, que le gouvernement chinois nous laissera entrer au pays de Mao et que les ...

Like Robert Redford was Africa, I am Italy. I must say it is a little bit of a relief. The Italians are not like me, they are loud and for the most part, a little bit obnoxious. I am back in France staying with Marion's family in Epinal. We had a lovely dinner, perhaps a couple too many glasses of wine. I'm feeling a little bit crook! But don't tell the hosts, they are very welcoming; they even had an Australian flag in the doorway for my arrival! So the last day in Como changed my ...

... back of the chapel where the tower windows cast a beautiful soft glow onto the alter below. I found another lovely spot and tried to coax him over, but he nor the back pack would budge. I gave in and joined him near the alter where (again cleverly) he engaged me in a conversation about the location of the windows in the tower. Next, he asked if I knew what, mon chéri meant? In my head I thought, What kind of question ...

... il y a une lois qui interdit de peindre sa maison en blanc. En plus certains villages oubligent a mettre des fleurs aux fenetres. Je me demandait pourquoi il y avait plein de cigognes dans les magasins. C est parce que c est l embleme et g eu la preuve quand g vu un nid sur un toit. Gigantesque. Chaque soir g un entrainement de baby foot au bar da coté. Juste apprendre tout les règlement c est kek chose. Non mais me semble que quand la balle rentre dans le but c est un point. ? bof ...
