House Party!

So I organized my first house party in France this weekend. We sent out the invitation to our closest friends in Mulhouse and Strasbourg and were fully not expecting anyone to come on account of the distance and difficulty in getting here. But in the end it was a big success and Scott and Liz came out!

So Scott is an English assistant from Mulhouse who broke his leg before school started. So he has been in a cast this whole time. But luckily over the break the cast came off and so he wanted to use his new found legs. He was lucky and was dropped off by one of his teachers who lived in Soultz the town next over. Liz is an American assistant from Strasbourg who is super fancy. In fact the first day of training I pointed out how fancy she was and we started to sing Iggy's fancy and dance spontaneously. What I am trying to say is she is pretty cool :D

We cooked dinner together and the conversation kept flowing. I was thinking of doing some drinking games prior to the party to get people to talk but there was really no need as everyone geled. Also we spoke most of the time in French because my roommate Loic is French and can't speak English!

Because Liz and Scott couldnt catch a train to get back home since we live in Guebwiller they stayed for the night sleeping in my room. And on Saturday we all went for a hike in the surrounding vinyards and had some more of Anna's cookies.

All in all a very successful and fun house party! Going to try to organize more of this.

I believe I said: "Quick - look like you guys are having fun"

Scott the coat monster since he didn't bring any sleeping bag I used my coats to cover him haha. 


Peace from Guebwiller.
