This is where I will chronicle some of my adventures and follies in the coming year. As I'll be in fairly remote locations with intermittent access to the internet, I suspect this will be the best way to keep folk in the loop - friends, loved ones and rubberneckers alike.
On September 26th, I'll make my way towards France where I'll start off on a small farm in Belle-Île. In the 'department' of Morbihan, it is famous for goofy Breton dialects, sardines, dense confections full of butter with crunchy flecks of sea salt, and hard cider. Needless to say, I'm in it for more than hard labor and language immersion.
In case anyone is interested, the ad I responded to appears below:

That's all she wrote as far as planning goes. I can't say for sure how long I'll stay in France or Europe at large. The plan is to experience as much language/traveling/baking/farming/ experience as humanly possible on a shoestring. | |
