Ep 1 La Loire, France. July 2017. Sunflower.
It's a photo of a field of sunflowers. I remember that it was a great day for cycling: blue sky, sunny but not too hot, sunflowers swaying gently with the light breeze. It was a photo of hope, optimism!

My first podcast. 31 days have passed since the French government decided on the quasi complete lockdown of the nation. I have lots of goals set up to achieve during this period; yet, a month later, I don’t feel like I have achieved much. And you? Are you confined as well? Are you more productive than I am?

Happy listening!

Mon premier podcast. 31 jours sont passés depuis que le gouvernement français a décidé de mettre le pays en quarantaine. J’ai fixé pleins d’objectifs pour la période depuis le premier jour. Pourtant, un mois plus tard, j’ai l’impression de ne pas avoir en accompli beaucoup. Et vous ? Est-ce vous êtes aussi confinés à domicile à cause du coronavirus ? Est-ce que vous êtes plus productifs que moi ?

Bonne écoute !

Bonjour! Je m'appelle Claudia. That was the extent of my linguistic skills when I first came to France in 2016 from Singapore. My French is much better now (it has to after 8 years!) but I am still waiting for the day when I can dream in the language and not mix up the genders of inanimate objects. This blog is about my life in France: food & drinks, different regions, gardening, my work as as an English teacher, French bureaucracy, different French regions. I have recently moved from the Parisian suburbs to Grenoble, the flattest city in France but surrounded by mountains. I hope to share more about my adventures in Grenoble with you.
