The Adventure School is taking the rest of the day off to observe Rosh Hashanah, The Jewish New Year! We will see you tomorrow after we have had our fill of apples and honey. A sweet new year to you!

So, as we are hosting an international intern for the next eight months we have decided to learn her language! YEAH! The Adventure School is headed to French Class! I have studied the French language before at the University of Washington, at one point taking their intensive language course over the summer. Aviva is a fluent speaker of Mongolian and has proficiency in conversational Hebrew. Between the two of us, get ready for some serious beginners conversation in French! Twice a week from here on out we will be headed to the University of Washington to learn our ‘Ils’ from our ‘Il’ and our ‘merci’ from our ‘de rien’. And with Morgane as our everyday instructor in French we will soon be a Francophonic Force!

Just last Friday, she taught us to say, “The Adventure School est une agence d’evenementiel. Nous l’avons cree toutes les deux il y a deux ans. Nous organisons des soirees, des mariages, des voyages. Nous decorons des espaces. Nous adressons aux particuliers, aux entreprises et aux organisations a but non lucratif. Nous travaillons beaucoup dans le milieu artistique”. Soon she will teach us how to type with the correct accents over our words. Yeah!

So, be on the lookout for The Adventure School French Club. We will report back after our first day of school. A bientôt!
I have included a map of the Francophone world including special demarcation of the new bastion of French culture, Seattle’s Adventure HQ in the International District.
