à Strasbourg

So this is my first post! I've been here for one week and I had a bit of a scare when I first arrived. I had a bit of miscommunication with the residence I was suppose to stay in. I phoned just before I left and they said there was no problem and there was tons of space...but when I arrived I was told they were full! So I stayed in a hotel until I finally found accommodation. I live on the 7th floor in a little attic studio! I thankfully have an elevator that goes to the 6th floor then I go up one more floor to the attic.

Here are some pictures of my place!







This is the view from the door.

So there you have it! My place :) Tomorrow I'll upload pictures of Strasbourg to give you a feel for the city!

I took my placement test this past Monday and I will know the results of what level French I am tomorrow. So this week has been a week of orientation. I went on a boat trip around Strasbourg yesterday and tomorrow is a tour of the University. So classes officially start on the 24th!
