Hannah, 24 years old, self professed geek of music, fashion, culture. I am a grammar fiend! I enjoy smelling flowers, inspecting weird green beetles on the pavement, drinking too much coffee, eating too much chocolate, laughing like a hyena….
Born in England, raised in Ireland, grew flowers in Scotland, and now living in France.
Not exactly around the world in eighty days but I feel I’ve packed a lot in 24 years, so I’ve decided to start writing it all down.
The city of Edinburgh was a great place to flourish, but a green-eyed Frenchman lured me to France with him – lucky me, peut–être? 😉
I am slowly and surely adjusting to the French way of life – learning an extremely difficult and different language, navigating an interesting culture, drinking lots of red wine, eating A LOT of cheese, and meeting beacoup de new and exciting people along the way.
Strasbourg December 2013
Good luck with the transition! How long have you been in France and how is it going so far?
Since last January – so a year now ! It’s going okay, I’m really finding the cultural transition difficult and the language drives me crazy !! I think a lot of patience is necessary; and you?
Hey Hannah. I came across your blog whilst googling Reims! It’s a cute blog, well done 🙂
I’m English, 24, and have lived here for 4 years-ish now, My Frenchman comes from here and makes champagne, yummy!
Let me know if you fancy a coffee (or wine) sometime. I could do with talking a bit of English again!
A bientôt! Rachel x
