What's your story?
I'm Suzie. I just graduated from Indiana University (Bloomington) with a degree in Arabic language and Anthropology, with a minor in Psych. This post-graduation year, I'm traveling around, working on my two languages, French and Arabic. I spent the summer with a governement program in Morocco, now I'm in Marseille, France, doing a supplementary study abroad to become fluent in French. I loved Marseille so much...that I'm staying! Will be taking some classes for visa purposes, but otherwise I'm obtaining a TEFL and hoping to teach/tutor English. Going home for the holidays (gotta get my US fix!) but then I'll be back at least until May, if not longer!
How about you?

Salut !
I'm Canadian, been living in Paris for 3 years. Would love to swap tips about finding healthy and green things (that won't break the bank) here, seeing as I haven't found anything comparable to what I've heard Trader Joe's is like. I am also always open to complaining about the administration.
Cheers!0 -

Hi
I'm Kathy, living near Cognac in the Poitou Charente. We've been in France for a number of years now, having brought up our two sons here. Love MFP, but if there's anyone nearby, please friend me if you want. I can always do with the extra support.
Not a lot going on in this group. Hopefully there are more expats around.0 -
Salut, tout le monde!
My name's Emily and I'm from Florida. I moved to Verdun in 2011 to be with my then-boyfriend, now-husband. I got a job in Champagne-Ardennes and now teach English at a little private school. I'm not overweight but I was headed in that direction. I'm losing weight and getting healthy, particularly upping my exercise, in order to improve my mental health as well. I just lost my Dad this summer and it's really doing a number on my head, and I find myself eating poorly, overeating, not exercising, and drinking alone, which is never a good thing.
Anywho, back to happier things, I love books, writing, music, and SOCCER. Gosh, I love when I get to play soccer against my students.
Nice to meet all of you!0
