Ten Things I Miss/Look Forward To About Paris (Mostly Food & Drinks)

1. Un café 
2. L'Écir (in my head this is "our" café as it's down the street from the classroom building)
3. Carte Noire 
4. Badoit Rouge (intensément pétillant, and isn't "pétillant" a nicer word than "fizzy"?)
5. Falafel in the Marais
6. Volvic au Jus d'Agrumes (and pretty much anything else aux agrumes including Volvic Citron)
7. Amorino gelato 
8. Boeuf tartare 
9. The RATP
10. Les soldes

T minus 10!

Daniel and I lift off in 10 days for this year's Paris trip. He is bringing his French skills and willingness to pick up sandwiches and joining me as program assistant. Both of us are very excited and I know the 88 students (!!!) going with us are too. It's not quite time to start packing, but almost! Stay tuned for updates again this year.
