  1. Well, I'm probably a lot older than you are but I remember my year in France like it was yesterday.....it was 1972. It was the best year of my life. I was a student at a cal state u. in California...we went to a beautiful city in southern france called aix-en-provence. I took most of my classes at the school for foreign students. I had some skills when i got there, but really became fluent because of my year there. I had a french boyfriend for most of the year and that really helped. I also lived in the dorms where there were mostly french-speakers.  I also made friends with a family and the daughters so I got to practice a lot. I did take one class at the regular university (American Literature)..fun....the prof called on me to read most of the time since I had an american accent!! LOL. It also gave me the opportunity to travel during vacation time, which was great.

    Go for it....and just try to assimilate as much as you can.


  2. Here's a great site with information about the culture, people and education of France:
