Tharoiseau, Bourgogne
I'm sorry to all my thousands of loyal followers that I've been so bad about posting recently, it's just that with less than a month left (!!!) classes have started to heat up and I'm trying to do as much stuff as I can. Anyway, here's an overdue post:
Two weekends ago I went with my host family to their house in a tiny little village in Bourgogne (Burgundy). I spent most of my time walking around Tharoiseau, which looks a lot like a town out of Beauty and the Beast, and Vézèlay, a larger more well-known town with a big, beautiful—in a kind of creepy Catholic way—cathedral. I also got to see a play-version of a book by little-known German writer named Gertrude von le Fort that my host dad translated from German into French that a small group of weirdo actors performed while we were there. I also got to know my host frère Cyrille better, which was cool.
Overall, it was a great trip and I'm really glad I got to see provincial France. Some photos are below:
