Intercalary Year (2010-2011)
As I publish this as the latest instalment of randomosity to grace this website, I’ve just laid down my pen on the first set of multiple forms needed for next year’s séjour on the continent.
Given the joint nature of my degree - BA Hons French and Spanish (Applied Languages) – it was necessary to choose two locations where both languages are the de facto/ de jure ones of the Countries in question. I have hence chosen the towns/cities of:
- September – January: Université de Mons (Belgium, Province of Hainaut)
- January/February – June: Universidade de Vigo (Spain, Autonomous Community of Galicia)
Both choices are subject to University approval, so we shall wait and see if I am to be placed there...
While I have not denied in the past that I have had some apprehension about the Year Abroad, I think I'm starting to be at ease with it all, so fingers crossed I'll get to go where I want and that it will be an enjoyable experience!
UPDATE: I've been provisionally granted a place at the Université de Mons, so it just remains to see whether I get a place in the Universidade de Vigo!
