Landed, luggage and language!

December 5th, 2008 | 3 Comments | Posted in General News, Language, OMF, Travels

I am in Sapporo!

I arrived here on Tuesday and luggage came too.  My big box from the UK hasn’t got here yet, it is taking it’s time through customs with a complication or two…  But DHL is keeping me up to date and I hope it will be here next week!
I have moved into my new apartment.  It’s great!  Actually larger than I expected and really nice…  I will post pictures sometime soon I promise!

I also spent some time today talking to Miriam Davis, the language co-ordinator here.  We were discussing the syllabus and how things work for me in terms of language study.  I was also introducted to Saito-sensei who will be teaching me Japanese for the next while.  I will start before Christmas with two lessons a day, including some kanji (the chinese characters) and going up to three in the new year…  I am really looking forward to this part now!  I think I will enjoy language study!

While I was on the plane from singapore I saw an episode of Flight of the Conchords and this song made me laugh.  So practise your french with the Conchords!
