The Eyjafjallajokull Volcano creates a buzz

It was an uncertain week for us folks who are planning to visit Europe this summer. The Iceland Volcano with an unpronounceable name, typical of North Germanic languages, made sure that every hiss, crackle and regurgitation of ash and lava it made was followed and reported by International Media. But the photographs are fantastic! Nature, red in tooth and claw! (http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/04/more_from_eyjafjallajokull.html).

The flights have resumed and I hope to fly off to Paris on the 4th of May. THe Visa is one last hassle to clear before I leave.

Invitation to be a teacher with L'Ermitage Paris

I am giving a shot at blogging. There is a necessity, I suppose because I have been invited by Chris Hunter, Director of L ' Ermitage school near Paris to be a teacher in his school for a period of 6 weeks, coming May. I thought it'll be swell to share my experiences as an Indian teacher teaching French students in Paris. I'm excited. It will be vacation time for us here in India but Ermitage works till early July.
