Ma nouvelle résidence

Yesterday, I got my final orientation packet from API and now officially know where I will be living!!!

Although I didn't get my first choice at a studette, I am pretty happy to be living in the dorms at Fondation des Etats-Unis.  Click here for a direct link to the dorm.  The Fondation des Etats-Unis is part of the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris in the 14th arrondissement.  Here, there are many international dorms for students studying all over the city.

I will have a single dorm with a sink in the room and a shared bathroom.  At first, I was a bit disappointed to not have my own apartment but when I thought about it, living with other people who are taking the same classes as me will be awesome!  My friend Sarah who attended the same program during the Fall 2012 semester said that those kids that lived in the dorms were very close and seemed to have a lot of fun there! 

In any event, I can't wait to live in Paris even if it meant living in a cardboard box on the hills of Montmartre.
