Christmas, New Year and Getting back to Grenoble!!
Hello everyone!
Firstly, I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year. It's been an epic time for me...
Christmas and New Year
Christmas was very much a family affair for me. I got to see several members of my family at different times throughout the short time I had. I only got back to the UK around the 21st December so I wasn't exactly loaded with time. Christmas Day saw my Grandparents come round for a traditional British roast dinner of turkey and beef (yes, we fulfill the stereotype well) which was a great occasion for all.
Shortly after I got myself up to Lincoln for a rare return to my university town. I was lucky enough to spend a fantastic week with my girlfriend Bethany and some other mutual friends. Highlight of the week was a great New Year's Eve party with some friends who piled Erasmus-style round the house for some banter. All in all, a great time and it was a real shame to have to leave. Ultimately, it was always going to happen, I guess. Good things have to come to an end but I am very excited to be getting back. In any case, Bethany will be coming to visit soon in Grenoble so that more than makes up for it.
Can't go wrong!
So what happens next? Well, tomorrow I return to France to continue my Erasmus adventure - very exciting!
To get back to all my friends and coursemates will be a breath of fresh air again and will be a long time coming.
Next Saturday evening I will be at LondonPub at around 8pm for a birthday 'night out', as my 21st birthday is on the Sunday. Any of my Erasmus friends out there are more than welcome to join us and celebrate!
For those of you who are new to Grenoble - I certainly hope to see people around. Many of us lot are old hands around the town so anything you need, just ask! Besides, it would be great to meet more people from all over the world. (and if there are any English folk out there, do show yourselves!!)
Tomorrow the madness begins again! I will be in town around 7pm local time - I'll be on the train from Gare de Lyon that pulls in around 1840 :)
Part 2 awaits.
Best wishes to you all!
Mike :)
