I have decided that becoming sick is my personal way of claiming a foreign country as my own. Or maybe it is the country's way of claiming me. In either case, I am now a little more French. A few months ago I would have been quite displeased about being at all Froggian (Puh French! Yeah, Spanish!), but now I don't think being a bit Provençalian is quite so bad. Besides, this newly acquired French-ness is still tempered by my Guatemalan experience with Montezuma ;)

Sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well, although I heard that you're doing a bit better now. Being stuck in your apartment in France has to be a real downer - even though resting probably isn't such a bad thing. Hope you can get back on that new bike soon and continue the good life of a foreign exchange student in one of the prettiest places on earth!
