So, I do really have my heart set on going to Paris for a academic year (Fall 2006-Spring 2007). I'm learning French because all my classes will be in French. And of course I need to be able to speak to the natives.
But I also got some opportunities to study in Sao Paulo, Brazil or Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Both of those places sound great, but I would have to learn Portuguese or Spanish. I know a little Spanish from living in Barcelona, Spain...
*TIP: make friends with non English speakers when living in another country, it's the only way to truly emmerse into the culture.
I'm picking Paris because I spent the last 3 months learning French and I loved it when I went there. But it would be nice to live somewhere I never been before. (I love doing that)
I have to say learning French is great. Girls always ask me to tell the something in French and I usually have fun with it. One time I just said the days of the week and she loved it! It's soo funny.
So right now, not only because of schools, I'm learning to speak Spanish, Frecnh & Portuguese.
I always wanted to master the Romance languages.
My levels in those languages
SPANISH - Enough to ask for directions, look at a room for rent, talk to a girl, and watch some soap operas
FRENCH - count, tell time, greetings, some verbs
PORTUGUESE - bonita dos gracias, você é bonita , Eu não falo o português, não mais
