4 weeks to go

So now there's only 4 weeks until I leave and I'm still totally calm about it, so much so I'm scaring myself! Still don't technically have anywhere to live but I'm in contact with two different people, each with rooms to spare so hopefully one of those will work out. I know which one I'd rather live in but I will just have to see what comes of it.

This week I have been sorting out all the little bits of paperwork that need doing, stuff like birth certificates, photocopying all the documents that I'm going to need, including all my A-level certificates and stuff, the French really do seem to love their paperwork! Hopefully though I'm getting there with all that stuff. I've become really particular about it all, they're all in files nicely organised and ready to go, goodness knows how long that will last, probably not long.

Still have a fair few things to sort out, stuff I need to buy and other little bits. I'm hoping to buy a few more clothes because despite going to a country of couture, I'm not sure whether clothes over there are going to be as cheap as some of the stuff over here, and at least here I know where to shop for certain things!

In all, it's going well, still have flights to book. Think I'm going to go Gatwick to Lyon and get to Gatwick by train. It seems to be cheaper that way, and I do plan to fly easyjet. Will have to make sure that I don't take too much stuff though, I'm going to have to plan this all out properly.

So things are getting there, just very eager to go now!
