Je suis arrivée à Québec

I am now in Quebec City, after spending a couple of weeks in Toronto taking a Language Acquisition course.

I arrived on Tuesday and am settling in quite nicely. The apartment that I'm staying in is in quite a prime location, with a Progivo (similar to a Loblaws or Superstore only smaller) right across the street and a bus stop in front. My roommate speaks only French, so communicating with her thus far has been quite challenging yet will be great in the long run. There have been attempts of speaking French to her and a lot of hand gestures, but when all else fails, there have been attempts to try to explain or clarify things in English. I'm sure over time, we'll be able to have deeper, more meaningful conversations.

School begins on August 30 for me at Laval University. So until then, still trying to familiarize myself with this new place.

Bienvenue à mon blog!

Welcome to my first ever blog in hopes of allowing you to catch a glimpse of what's happening in this journey of mine!

Hopefully, this will allow us to stay connected and for me to let you know of any prayer updates and thanksgiving items that arise. Thank you all for already supporting me and praying for me! It's always great to know that people are behind me.

So, this afternoon, I left Vancouver and am now in Toronto for a linguistics course. I will then be leaving for Quebec City on August 24 to study French at Laval University for the upcoming year.

I hope to update this blog frequently, so if you want to know what's happening with me, just read away!

Bye for now!
