I leave for Angers (basically pronounced On-zjay...very French) in 41 days! I am excited but anxious, as I still have to recieve my student visa and pay off what I owe for the program....a lot to think and worry about!
I figured I would share with y'all some pictures of where I will be going.
Here is an aerial view of Angers:
As you can see in the picture above, there is a HUGE castle in the city. This is because Angers is right in the heart of French castle country in the northwest, about an hour and a half west of Paris. Here is a close-up of Chateau Angers:
Beautiful, right? I can't believe I'm going to be living right next to this!!! This brings me to my next topic...my University! Now, for this program, I am taking 6 hours with an A&M professor (Dr. Schoolcroft) along with the 3 other girls going on this study abroad trip. In addition, I will be taking 9 hours at "Université Catholique de l'Ouest" ...yes, a Catholic University!
Here are some pictures of this University I will be attending:
Seems awesome enough :)
Well, that's all I have for now. More prep work...until next time! Au Revoir!!
