Bonjour from France!

Hello, everyone! I'm so sad that nobody has posted anything all semester long... oh well! I'm just here giving a short update on some of your fellow SCFers abroad (see previous post). Those of us who are currently in France (Jenna, Jeewon, and me), took a short weekend to visit an SCF alum, Katie Becker, whom most of you know! She's in Chambery, France, finishing up a year she spent teaching English to middle- and high-schoolers. When we visited, the weather was beautiful, so we went hiking up to the Croix du St. Nivolet, which is the huge cross pictured below.

It completely dwarfed the four of us, as you can see. We also had an American picnic at the peak, "in the shadow of the cross"! It was "American" because we had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches...

I, personally, was psyched to have a mini-SCF reunion that weekend. It was made even better by two opportunities to Skype with SCFers, Wes, who is abroad in Beijing this semester, and Alan Chiu, who graduated two years ago and is currently in med school in Philly. But being around all these SCFers just made me miss all of you back at Swat all the more!

Well, that's all! Just trying to keep this short. If you want to read more, you can check out my blog posts from France. And all four of us put up photos on Facebook, naturally.

See you all this fall!
