Language Lessons
This is rather humorous take on life and culture shock in the South of France. I would encourage you (especially if you’re French) to go to An American in France’s website and say hello.
The number of French Flags on my StatCounter indicates that about half of my own readers live in France. In the coming weeks I’ll start to write some posts en français and I’m counting on you to give me tips on how I can improve my language skills. Tomorrow night I’ll begin weekly lessons at the Alliance Francais in New York. In true francophile dork-dom, I already purchase my textbook “Grammaire du Français” and completed the first 3 lessons. If you are French, please comment on posts in French, so that I have to communicate with you in your native tongue. Merci beaucoup! Wish me luck!

Ca sera avec plaisir qu’on te rendra ce petit service, Amélie !
Dès aujourd’hui, je t’ajoute dans ma blogroll (très français, ça !) en espérant que ça t’amène quelques visiteurs supplémentaires de France. Bise !

Bonjour,
Je suis un passionné de l’Amérique du Nord avec ses qualités et ses défauts… Je serais enchanté de discuter avec vous par mail en français et de temps en temps en anglais “to improve my english too !!” Si vous faîtes un tour sur mon blog vous pourrez lire des nouvelles et textes en français….
A très bientôt j’espère.
Amicalement.
Osiris

Hello from the French Alps. I stumbled upon your blog from another American expat’s blog. I’m from Nor. California and currently living in the French Alps with my American husband who dragged me out here a year ago.
Due to me not having a work visa, my full time job is to learn French. It isn’t easy. If you’d like to practice with me, I’d love it. Si vous voulez, envoyez-moi un e-mail!
P.S. There are some great French language podcasts that I listen to through iTunes. Check them out!
