Well - apart from the desperate first day, where I felt like complete crap - this is putting it lightly. I was so tired, homesick and felt so alone! It was not good at all. But today was so much better. Ive caught up on some sleep, i'm getting over jetlag, eating regularly again. Getting my internet up and working made me feel so much better, that way I can be more in touch with everyone. Anyways!
Today I went around I'll de la Cite, walked by the Saine river. I went with the family here, we took the Metro (3 stops!) there and took the bus home (one bus!). Im getting familiar with the area, and I even found a EruoStore! So I picked up some stuff there, and believe it or not its the same kinda junk thats at our dollarstores at home.
I was at a Bercy's yesterday; a big WalMart like grocery store, and you would not believe how many different varietys of cheese, coffee, and yogurt there are!!! They have 1 whole long aisle just for yogurt, billions of different kinds. And 2 ailes for cheese!! Right now in the fridge there is a box with like 9 different kinds of cheese in it, and they have 3 different brands of yogurts in there too, all plain. Who knows?
Oh and lastly, you totally always see people walking around with baguettes. Everyone eats lots of bread - which I love.
