Je Vais Aller En France (Encore)
The two year plan is to cross the Atlantic in Juin, head to England for the rest of the summer and explore, then make way south for the warmer cote de sud du France, where exactly, only the winds will tell… but I know I’d like to spend some serious time in France, learning to live, speak and eat French. With that in mind, I’m back in full swing avec mes leçons francais.
I’ve discovered a new language learning product… le podcast. I was never really in the know, or the care for that matter, about the podcast. The name kind of put me off I suppose. But they have been quite excellent for hearing real french people speaking francais. My favorite series so far has been Coffee Break French, taught by some wacky Scots. I’ve also found an interesting blog with witty insights into a life abroad, par un Expat living in France, which I fancy myself becoming one day. And one more new reference about living in France, mais bien sur… the Expat Forum!
And a fresh new find today thanks to Rosie, Capucine! An amazingly animated and creative little girl from France… the PERFECT way to learn french! Watch her Video on Vimeo
One thing je sais is that time moves swiftly. My loose plan, to be well into France by 2010 isn’t all that far off. I’m getting ready MAINTENANT, and if I’m ready to go sooner, super. This fantastic shot of Nice is by Arcadiv, go check out more of his amazing work on flickr.
We’re glad you’re enjoying Coffee Break French. And hopefully we’re not too wacky
It’s always great to hear from listeners who are putting what they’re learning to good use and we’d like to wish you “bonne continuation” from Radio Lingua!

Oui Mark, j’aime vos podcasts, merci tres beacoup!

No Benji!!! Don’t go to France, por favor! I thought you would journey with me for Earthsoul. I’ll miss you. But I’ll see you there in a few years!
