Beaune is a small town with some historical site such as Hotel Dier Hospices de Beaune which was builr in the 15th century and was once used as a hospital. We had a very nice dinner at a local restaurant (rather expensive) but was well worth it, it is called Le Jardin des Remparts.
This is part of our 2-week French language trip in Lyon.
Bonjour, bienvenue! Le Journal intime des Irene et Dominic
We wanted to experience life together as students and we have always wanted to learn to speak more languages. So when the opportunity arised at the end of 2005, we decided to seize it and planned a 3-month French Language Trip, 4 January to 4 April 2006. Our course was split into 2 locations in France, namely, Antibes (South of France) and Paris.
This site serves as the logbook of our study trip, it contains our dairy, photos of the schools and the places that we visited during our stay. Hope you enjoy our sharing!
In particular, I would like to share with you:
Ownership Vs Freedom
After thought
It was indeed a fantastic journey, we are able to make simple conversation in French and we find it very amusing. The experience was simply great and we would recommend everyone to take some time off at some point in their life, drop everything, forget about the usual busy life and learn a new language. You won't regret it! Life is too short!
We will continue to take classes to improve our still beginner level French....

The Normandie coast is white, sharp cliff, simply magnificent. Very similar type of cliff can be found in England, I was told that they were the same piece of land many many years ago...
