Soo, how is France going after you might ask! It's still difficult. If french people talk to each other, it's too fast for me, I don't understand much. And communication isn't as smoothly as I hoped. However, I managed to exchange a train ticket, check into the hotel and solve a bureaucracy emergency where I had to print something in a copy shop and send it home to Germany via express at the post office (my first born is sold now)

At the conference, English is of course the main language, although french is helpful with the personell at the venue. Tomorrow we'll go for a little trip and then the conference is already over. I'll do some touristic things then!
