    Great news @TypeCoin971793 !
    I'm pretty sure you will have a great time here in France.
    Don't forget to visit the (fairly) new Louvre museum in Metz, the building is amazing and quite good the exhibitions.

    There are so many places of cultural interest that I doubt a semester will be enough. Hopefully, you will fall in love with Europe and come again and again. If you need any tip or advice don't hesitate to contact me via MP, I will be glad to help

    I wish you the best

    If you have the time, I absolutely loved Carcassone. Beautiful castle in a very small town. It's where Europeans go on vacation to see castles. I highly recommend it!

    Alegandron, I live in Cosheston in Pembrokeshire, I used to live in Cardiff and Penarth in South East Wales but I decided to travel as far West as I could go without becoming Irish. I know the Ely and have fished it. One of my friends lives in Peterstone-super-Ely just outside Cardiff next to the National Folk Museum.

    WOW, been to that museum a few times with the kids. I lived on a farm in the Hedgerows just south of Peterson-Super-Ely, and used to walk to the Three Horseshoes Pub there. Gorgeous area, and just loved it. 50 head of sheep, 36 chickens until a fox killed a bunch, 12 Welsh Cobbs, and an Arabian... kids had a great time living there. Livestock was owned by my Landlord farmer (except the chickens were mine). We helped out, as I grew up farming and actually had flocks of sheep.

    You are near the docks that I would take the Ferry to Ireland all the time. Did a lot of business there.

    You’re in for a life changing experience! I love France. The art, the history, the museums and food, but above all, the people.

    I finally got some information about the steps that need to be taken (I had been looking for said information for three months, but it was hidden from me until yesterday for some reason). I have since caught up, but the process is going to be a little difficult since I am co-oing 350 miles away from the orientations and French Consulate.

    I'm still a bit giddy that I got round-trip tickets for only $540, after fees and insurance. My airfare was completely covered by the profit from some coins I sold over the past couple months. I will be flying on a couple of my favorite airplanes: the 777 and 787! :woot:

    Next step is renewing my passport. :nailbiting:

    It's a small world Alegandron! I know the Three Horseshoes Pub well. I've often taken the Ferry to Rosslare as I have business in Ireland too.
