Dorm Life

This is mainly to show a few pictures of my room. I have a single that is actually bigger than my double in the dorm in London. It's nice, especially since there is a refrigerator, but I don't have a stove or microwave and the communal kitchens are for considerably more people. The rooms get cleaned once a week, and the internet is infinitely better than it was in the London dorm.

It takes me about 5 minutes to walk to the Metro, and from there it's two trains and about 20-30 minutes to get to the Paris Center.

The people in charge of us in Paris are very disorganized, so all of the students are in two dorms on opposite sides of the Cité campus, and we're all on different floors in the dorms. Thus, it's incredibly difficult to organize outings and get-togethers. There's also the fact that there are quite a few people who already know others in both our program and the French CIV. We've been a bit slow in getting to know each other, but this weekend we've been trying to remedy that with frequent pub outings.
