Florence V: Just My Luck
New Generation Festival-Night II When my alarm wakes me up, I head to the bathroom to get ready and this time I am not as nervous as I get dressed. I don’t try to leave a bit earlier as I did the night before and I don’t even put as much effort (or time) into…

Saint Jean Cap Ferrat
I ended up in this little hidden town called Saint Jean Cap Ferrat that was not at all on my radar. Cap Ferrat is nestled right below Beaulieu sur Mer which I fell in love with on a trip there during my study abroad days. I decided to visit Beaulieu once again on this trip.…

Fun on Île Saint Honorat
We took a boat to Île Saint Honorat where we walked through wooded pathways and open fields to get to the ancient church/monastery. The view from the top was great and there was something mystical about the well right by the entrance. I noticed a guy down below taking a picture of the rooftop where…

Taking the Leap
School starts tomorrow and I am a bit scared on the inside. Everything will be in French. I feel like the guy in the picture except for the fact that while he’s got time to change his mind, I can’t back out. I’ve already leapt so let’s see how/where I land.
