Hello culture shock!
Coming from a small city outside of Toronto, this country seems HUGE. The cars are smaller, the food is better, wine is cheaper than pop, and I could spend an entire day just looking at the buildings. Coincidentally, "architecture" is one of the few words I can pronounce perfectly en Francais.
The weather when I first arrived was beautiful and warm - for January at least. A nice contrast from a country filled with snow.
