That's 37 weeks or 6216 hours. Or 372,960 minutes. Or 22,377,600 seconds. And that's how long I'll be living in Rennes, France.
3,811 miles away from my home in New York.
It seems strange to write the numbers out like that, but it almost makes it seem more definite.
This year, with a Study Abroad Program, I have the opportunity to travel with a group of 65 or so students to Rennes for 9 months. From September 12th until May 29th. I figured such an opportunity couldn't go to waste so, in order to capture the year, I will post one photo per day, documenting a moment of a day in the life of an American Student in France.
Alongside the pictures, I will attempt to channel my inner writer and describe the experience, the severe language barrier, and my fumbling French.
Before Wednesday, I have packing to do. And that is no small feat, I'll tell you that much.
Yours in Dysfunctional French,
