Where I Live and My Family

So I live in a little town called Moisacc.  It is about thirty minutes outside of Montauban (where I go to school) and about and hour away form Toulouse (where the airport is).  Here is a picture showing where these cities are in relation to the country of France.

My house is on the mountain side and it is very pretty.  It is a pretty windy road to get to the house but it is totally worth the wait to see the view!

This is the living room and behind me is the front door

This is the eating area

This is the kitchen.  It is very different than the ones we have at home!

This is another view of the eating area and the living room.  In this picture you can see the large windows you can see the stunning view out of

This is my view from my room.  It is their driveway.

This is the view from the house at night.  It is not the best picture but you get the idea.  It is absolutely breath-taking!

Here is the view from my house from the day.

Here is another picture from their back porch of the view

This is what their house looks like.  It is a one story with a loft.

Here is my host sister in her room.  Her name is Clara!

My time here so far has been awesome!  It is a lot of fun to stay with another family and live their life with them.  My host sister is very understanding with the language barrier and is very quick to help me understand something.  She is very good at art and wants to be a pharmacist when she gets older.  Her mom is a pharmacist and, from the best I can gather, her dad is an avid collector.  You can defiantly tell this from the things in the house.  I am pretty sure he has another job though I just don't know what.  My host sister does have one older brother who is a student in Spain.  I will get to meet him the last week I am here.  

Please comment on my blog if you have any questions, I would love to answer them.  You can also text me, but please send it as a text message not iMessage because I won't get those on my phone.  I will be doing another post soon about my adventure in Toulouse Sunday.  I leave Friday for Paris and I do not get back until Monday.  I will do a post about that whole experience when I return as well.  Lastly, after I go to school more and understand what is going on better, I will do a post about the school.  It is very different than the schools in America.

Lastly, here are some more pictures from the plane ride from London to Toulouse. 

It was rainy weather, but the sun was shining in Toulouse!
