The plot thickens...

I have now booked my Eurostar tickets, on the 15th of September at 13:31 I will leave you lovely people for the City of Love. 

I'll see you there, with your big banners, tears in your eyes, running after the train down the platform? No? Okay then. 

And so it begins...

So, in just over 2 months I begin my year long adventure starting in Paris on 15th September. I thought in my infinite wisdom that I would create a blog and fill it with what I get up to during my year abroad. Then you can all imagine me reading it in your heads and it will be wonderful. It still all seems very far away at the moment and I can assure you I am scared, although my mother told me I am not 'scared' I am 'apprehensive' and there is a difference...
In terms of preparations I have insurance, those of you who know me well can breath a sigh of relief now and I am building up a repertoire of interesting french phrases I can use to perplex the Parisians into thinking I have actual knowledge of the language. Now all that's left to do is book my Eurostar tickets (feel free to come and wave me off) and pack my stuff into a maneuverable case and actually go...

Watch out Paris.
