St Genis Les Ollieres




Well I'm finally in France! It seemed like a long time coming and now I have to sit back and try to comprehend the fact that I'm actually here- how cool is that! I've been too lazy to take pictures up until today so I don't have any of the city of Lyon yet, only of the town on the outskirts which I'm staying in until I find an apartment which will hopefully be next week. It's so peaceful here; I didn't even know such a place could exist. I'm sure the pictures can't even capture the mood of the area but it's an excellent location to recover from mono- that much is for sure. I'm already in love with the city and the surrounding area and I'm understanding more and more French everyday. I'm getting a lot of conversation practice at the house I'm staying at which belongs to my friend and her family who've been so helpful to me ever since I got here. I'll update more as more events occur but not much can be posted about apartment hunting that comes with pretty pictures, so for now I'll let these be the images of my life in Lyon so far.
