So, I've decided to put Normandy a bit on the backburner. A few weeks ago, I had to submit my uni preferences for next year. I'd spoken to one of the girls who's in Normandy now, and realised that I was really only choosing to go to Caen because there was a job on offer. I wasn't sure if I should be basing my entire decision on that. So I looked into a few of my other options, and my first choice I submitted was..... BORDEAUX. But, Normandy was still my second choice.
Bordeaux seemed to be a bit of a bigger town and also looked a little prettier. It's also one of the major wine regions so that will have its advantages. But, it is difficult to apply for accommodation on campus, so I will probably be living in an apartment in the centre of town. The uni is half an hour from town, but I figured if I'm only going to be at uni 2-3 days a week, I would rather travel 30 mins 2-3 times a week, rather than every time I wanted to go into town.
But, nothing has been guaranteed yet, so nothing is set in stone.
Come 2013, I will begin living in France for one year as part of my Uni degree. This blog will document the lead up to that year, the year itself and the time after.
