On the plus side, it has forced me to go to bed at a normal hour rather than back home. :)<br /><br />Katie - Thank you! I was reading your description on here and I have to say I miss watching reruns of Gilmore Girls (but if I could find it on TV here I would have no chance of understanding Lorelai/Rory in FRENCH because they speak so fast!)<br /><br />Caroline - I just looked up where you lived and it isn't too far from where I lived with my first host family (in Nederokkerzeel, although it's about 15 minutes outside of the city) and I'm sure I passed right by it when I visited Brussels. I've only been a few times so far but it's a gorgeous city! Tell me if there's anywhere you think I need to visit, I've been enjoying having a train station nearby and a GoPass for 10 rides. :) I don't know if Tamara is thinking about exchange at all but if she is (and has any questions) tell her to talk to me!Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358211305153427476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638798883042413743.post-17521842223599062962011-09-19T10:42:33.563-04:002011-09-19T10:42:33.563-04:00Hi Olivia!

We lived right next to the "Parque Cinquantenaire" and the European Community. I signed up my e-mail also for Tamara to read your posts. You're a great inspiration! Good luck with it all and looking forward to read more about your experiences.<br />Caroline MitchellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638798883042413743.post-34802552807753584322011-09-17T11:41:36.334-04:002011-09-17T11:41:36.334-04:00Hello Olivia, I am glad you are having a great tim...Hello Olivia, I am glad you are having a great time in Belgium.katecreatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16164732506426677242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638798883042413743.post-40627126368297824982011-09-17T09:53:18.698-04:002011-09-17T09:53:18.698-04:00Hi Olivia,

I am reminded of being immersed suddenly in a Belgian school...almost 50 years ago...and how super tired I was at the end of each day from trying to follow conversations. It gets easier!<br /><br />Mary FlanaganAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
