I ADORE FRANCE!!! I always say I am the biggest Francophile you will meet! I took 10 years of French! My biggest regret in my life is I never studied abroad! I want to be fluent in French more than anything! One movie that spoke to me was Paris Je T'Aime! To hear French for two hours is fantastic! The movie is divided by the districts of Paris! My favorite is the 14th! I feel like I talk French like this woman, but I had a similar experience! I have been to France 15 times, and I cannot remember which trip but I had a moment! I was sitting on the steps of Sacre Coeur looking out on the city. In that moment I fell in love with Paris, and the city fell in love with me!
I feel like a brat when I say I've been to France 15 times, but my first trip was in 1998 and I paid for it! I got a job at AMC and saved every paycheck! I got the bug, and had to find a way back! The BEST part of being a teacher is taking students to Europe! I have gone to Paris 3 times with BTW students! Here are a few pics of me in Paris with students!
This is infront of Notre Dame de Paris! The legend says if you touch it with your foot you'll come back to Paris - so of course we went!
On my 3rd trip they wanted to complete a jumping picture! I LOVE this shot!
Day 1 in Paris with Ms. Manduando
This is so Parisian to me!
I've been so many times - I've started getting artsy!
Boat tour of Paris
On my 2nd trip we had a free day on the Champs Elysee!
On my 2nd trip - a stereotype French waiter!
On my first trip to France with students - we took them to Versailles. We were the first one in the palace and I got this pic of the Hall of Mirrors! I am so proud! The last time I was here the room was so crowded the crowd decided when I moved!
