The best part of last week was the time we spent in Villard de Lans in the Vercors.

Music I am loving currently

Love the new Michael Kiwanuka album “Small Changes”.

As it is december on heavy rotation is the XFM “Its a Cool Cool Christmas” which I found out is 24 years old and I play it every Christmas. A truly excellent collection of Christmas inspired covers.

Job Search

Still very frustrating at the moment. Applying for jobs.

Exercise

Was ill for much of this week so didn’t do much exercise other than walking to the river and back a few times earlier in the week and hiking and sledging in the snow this last weekend in Villard de Lans.

French

Have finished my course at Alliance Française and now I am figuring out what to do next. I am thinking that 1-2-1 French lessons focusing on speaking would be much better.

Weather

Finally a large amount of snow fell on the mountains around Grenoble. Not in town but it was a lot colder here and wetter too.

Reading

Still reading “Le Petit Prince” by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, and half-way through “Intermezzo” by Sally Rooney

Other

Had friends over for Apéro on Saturday, installed the LED lights in our bedroom.
