The california of France

Hey kiddies!

So, i feel like Im living in the california of France. For those of you who don't know, I have moved to another farm (even though its not really a farm but an amazingly beautiful organic garden) near Nîme.

The sun has been constant and HOT! The house that I'm living in is beautiful (kinda italian villa-esque with grape vines towering over the back porch and palm trees shading the backyard).

It was kinda hard when I first got here....it was pretty lonely because I have a lot of independance here. But two girls just arrived on tuesday from Scotland and we have quickly become very good friends. Its nice because we share a lot of music interests and have a lot of good conversations.

Fiona and Sarah have been good friends to have around here because they are really socially conscious and are really involved with a lot of fair-trade organizations so we've had a lot to talk about. Plus its fun when we can make fun of each others accents. Today they were cracking up at the idea that i refer to the hair that is falls on my forehead as bang. They call it fringe. crazy brits!

anyways we're planning a trip to the beach and to Marseille......so i will probably get some site-seeing in.

well, thats all for now
