I'm half French, but I've never even visited Paris. I hope you'll enjoy it!
I go to a region in the east of France every year though to visit my grandparents. La Haute-Savoie. It's awesome. Cows, fondue, mountains and a big lake. And I'm going to Argentina in about two months! (oh my, is it already that close?) I am uberexcited about that. I'm going to see my family in Buenos Aires! It's a 12 hour flight, and I'm already nervous about the trip just talking about it!

Wow, sounds like you´re going on exciting trips! I´ve decided I´m going to go to Sweden next year. I hope a Swedish language course will fit into schedule.

Sweden would be an interesting place to visit. I think that in European travel, at least when Americans go to Europe, sort of overlooks the Scandinavian countries. That could be just a stupid assumption I've made.

No it seems like that to me too. We get the German tourists and that's pretty much it!

Yayyyyyyyy!! Congrats Dom!!!! I love booking a trip, that's when it stops just being a dream, and you know it's actually going to happen! Syl and I are off to Portland for the weekend this afternoon - I can't help but think of Bridget Jones and her mini-getaway weekends or whatever she called them

I'm going to China the day my HSC finishes . And I'd love to hit New York after high school. And then the UK for their music scene. And then venture around Europe.

I hope you have a fantastic time in portland I'm so excited about Japan, I'm going to go totally crazy with saving for it from now on though. I have enough but I want to make sure I have money for little fun purchases. How much money to take is a bit confusing, it would be horrible to run out while there! Wow reading is sexy China for skoolies (I'm guessing you must be an Aussie: HSC) I only went to Port Macquarie for my skoolies trip. How long until you graduate?

Ah. I love traveling. I totally do not belong in the US-Europe is my favorite place to travel. It's so old and so beautiful but so modern, too!
