the adventure begins,

I arrived in Paris yesterday morning and already have enough stories to last a few days. I am officially living in the beautiful city, Nice, France. The sweet grandmother and 13-year old granddaughter I am living with do not speak a lick of English. Finding their home was the real challenge, however. Everyone here assumes I know French, which makes me want feel even worse that I basically know how to say three things.

My name is Hayley.

I do not understand.

Do you speak English?



Hopefully my vocabulary will expand tomorrow at school, or my communication skills are as valuable as my host family's cat.
