Travels

In and around Europe

    Starting January 6th, 2007, I'll be studying until the end of May in Paris. Once my finals are over, I plan to travel around Europe with my sister Jenna and then with the rest of my family, finally returning to the US in mid-July.

SARA!! This is so exciting! Your family sounds wonderful, your room looks gorgeous, and you can walk to the Champs Elysee!! I'll try to download the skype thing so we can talk sometime. Also- did you get my package? If not I'll try to have your parents forward it. I sent it on Dec. 21 though so it should have arrived. I'd love your mailing address, and have a wonderful time! Maconda is really nice (or it seemed so in the 15 mins I've seen her haha) but it is weird not to have your room there. Miss you and have fun! Laura

SARA- I'm not sure if you're getting my emails. Undelivered mail keeps getting delivered to me with 'malarky...@hotmail.com' so wasn't sure if you were forwarding it there. Anyway, let me know, I'm getting your email. And I wanted to check that it's ok with you that I put envision grant co-recipient on my activities. I totally understand if you'd rather say that I helped, I don't want to misrepresent it. Anyway, just let me know by email that you got this? Thanks! LK.
