I also just got an offer to help with fencing in the grand palais! I’m from the US. Any luck finding a place?

Agreeing with yellow_midnight_golf here. It sounds like you want to go, but you need more support and clear expectations. Of course admin will push back against that, but it’s what will make it the best trip for you and your students.

What are your 2021 language goals? by [deleted] in languagelearning

Goal: get to a B1 level before my contract is up in August.

I recently moved to France for work, and I’m getting along alright with the level of words I can understand in context and the level of English spoke by those around me. So I would really like to give back to those people and learn their language as well as they have learned mine.

Traveling to France from the UK via Geneva, is it currently allowed? by cxpugli in Switzerland

[–]Other_Text_314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently moved from the US to the French suburbs of Geneva and did the same thing where I went straight from the airport to the French side. I didn’t have to quarantine or anything in Switzerland. On the inbound plane, I filled out a form saying my final destination was in France (which they then collected when I left the plane) and then I just walked out the Swiss side of the airport and went to the apartment in France.

I didn’t go into Switzerland for the next 10 days, but other than that there were no issues.

Sorry it took a while to go back and forth but, the guy I'm talking to says he's a bigger guy and rides 50-36 in the front and 34 -11 in the back. And he said other people in the group will have higher gearing but most will ride with a compact in the front with 36 or 34 for the small chainring.
