    I am so excited! It is such a beautiful moment in our nation’s history!! WE DID IT!!! We chose eloquence, intelligence, dignity and humility over fear, vengeance and anger. I have never felt more proud to be an american.

    Jennie, Me too! This may really change things in the world. At least, the French may be nicer to us US expats!

    How is all that hope and change been treating you all?  The one thing I was looking forward to was the end of people calling anyone with a dissenting opinion a racist…but even that has gotten worse.

Why is Jennie no longer in France?

I created this blog in September 2006 when I moved to France from Michigan to teach English. Many of the earlier posts are about my personal life in France, dealing with culture shock, traveling in Europe and becoming fluent in French. In January 2010, I started focusing more on teaching and learning languages in general. In July 2011, I relocated to Australia to start my PhD in Applied Linguistics. Although I am no longer living in France, my research is on foreign language pedagogy and I teach French at the university so these themes appear most often on the blog. I also continue to post about traveling (though now my trips are usually in Australia) and being an American abroad.
