Paris, graduation, drinks and dinner

just a quick message for now;
Arrived in Paris yesterday, with a 40 minute Thalys delay. Took a taxi to the apartment, changed quickly and took a taxi to the graduation ceremony of a few of my old classmates. (nice place, next to Mr.Sarkozy's office).

Met my old classmates, some LCB people (more news about them to follow later), had a few drinks and posh nibbels and went out for dinner with Damien, Levi and their girlfriends.

Today is Saturday. I'll have to do some shopping (mobile phone SIM card, fruit, coffee, beer) and just settle down. I'll have a quick look around in the neighbourhood.
I'll keep you updated with more stories and some pictures of yesterday's ceremony and my apartment.
Until later, it's raining now...

I found my apartment, finally !

Last week I booked my apartment; I found a nice place through 'ParisAttitude', a housing agency. The apartment has a good kitchen, separate bedroom and a sofa bed for  the occasional guest and it's not too far from the school. I think it's only a 10 minutes walk to class every day.

From Saturday 19th March until Sunday 6th June, I will be living in this place. Not bad!
And no, don't sign-up yet to pay me any visits.... (I will have the occasional guest, but I'm not a free Parisian hotel for couples and families !)
Until next time,
Sjoerd
