Perpignan - Encore

It has been a great year of travels and new friendships across the world.  Well, now I'm happy to announce that after spending a wonderful summer in Colorado (with a visit to Nebraska), I'm back in France for the year. 

This opportunity came about quite suddenly and I jumped into preparations quickly.  One month ago I received the offer, and only this week I arrived here back in Perpignan.  I'll be teaching in elementary schools for my second year.  They are three different schools than last year, but I'm living in the same city.  I arranged an apartment before I arrived, so I have a cute, homey two-bedroom apartment next to a large park that I'm sharing with another English assistant.  Already this week, I start half of my classes, and will start the others next week. 

Jumping into the swing of things is strange since it is all familiar and new at the same time.  I have few friends that are left in Perpignan, but still a good community of new assistants I'd like to get to know.  The town is largely the same, but a few of the familiar shops have changed (Monoprix is no longer Monoprix). 

So here's to wishing for another great year! Visitors are welcome and encouraged... I even have an extra bed :) Any one who'd like my address is welcome to send me an email. 

Hoping everyone is well.  Love you!
