So for this program, CUPA, the Center for University Programs Abroad, gives us 200 euros to spend as "cultural money". If we have any of those 200 euros left at the end of the trip, we have to give them back to CUPA. So far, I have used the money on dance classes, a tour of the Palais Garnier, the entrance into the Institut du Monde Arabe (Institute of the Arab World), the train ride to a cool museum in Reuil-Malmais, and the admission price for a French movie. My next 3 planned events sound fantastic.
1) Champagne tasting cruise on the Seine (in the evening! on a bateau-mouche) on Monday night with several other ladies from the program
2) Soccer game - the last of the regular season before World Cup qualifiers, between France and Colombia
3) To spend the last little bit of money, hopefully a 10-euro walking tour in Montmartre or the Marais district one of these coming weekends.
Can't wait!
