sèjour en besançon

last week i did a "homestay" in besançon, a small city in franche-comte (eastern france, near switzerland). these were my "parents:"



i was with a group of american students from my program. we did all sorts of fun things, like:

exploring the beautiful city of besançon...



visiting a run-down chateau...



eating delicious cheese (the regional specialty is called conté and it is amazing!)...



visiting a smokehouse...



going to neuchatel in switzerland!!







seeing seventeenth-century robots... they were amazing.



that was a fun week!
