Nous

class outing today to the marche in Nice, complete with assignments...talk to the vendors and get answers to the following questions... the poor Japonese gals..they are so shy. it was not that much fun really, because it was so cheesy. the conversations are much different when you are an actual customer! the difference between a visitor and a resident (no matter the origin) was painfully clear. it felt good though to know that i have learned how to make my way through the local customs/manners/ways. there comes a point at which you do feel it is a little less "me vs. them" and more "us". a good feeling.
