Food & Parties !!!

The other day, while Claire & I were wandering around campus we got asked one question : "What's your favorite thing about Queen's ?" Of course we had to answer !!!

L'autre jour, Claire & moi faisions un petit tour du campus quand on nous a posé une question : "Quelle est ta chose préférée à Queen's ?" Nous nous devions d'y répondre !!!

Our hair are frozen, yes, frozen ❄

Canadian Skin Routine

As you already know, Canada is a very COLD country ! And such temperatures can be really damaging for soft and sensitive skins ... like mine !? After nearly a month here I have found a Canadian winter beauty routine that suits me quite well :)

Comme vous le savez déjà, le Canada est un pays très FROID ! Et de telles températures sont un vrai calvaire pour les peaux sensibles ... comme la mienne !? Après presque un mois ici, j'ai enfin trouvé une rituel beauté adapté à l'hiver Canadien qui me convient :)

Cold, ugh? 

BYOB Party - BringYourOwnBeer

BYOB is a typical North American thing. Nothing can beat it in term of Canadian Student Life Experience! 

BYOB est quelque chose de typiquement Nord Américain. C'est un des must de l'expérience étudiante Canadienne!

Nail Drama

One of the things I enjoy the most is having my nails done - it's been for quite a few months now that I do Shellac and I am usually really happy with the final result because they are perfectly trimmed & polished for weeks BUT it seems that Canadians people don't do it the same way ... 

Une des choses qui me plait le plus, c'est d'aller me faire faire les ongles, ça fait déjà plusieurs mois que je fais régulièrement du "Shellac"et je suis toujours très contente du résultat car les ongles restent parfaits et brillants pendant plusieurs semaines MAIS au Canada, ils ne font pas vraiment ça de la même manière ...

What my nails generally look like ...

The Foooood

Right now, it seems impossible to go back to the kinda healthy diet I was on back home: the food is so different and sooooo expensive...

En ce moment, il me semble impossible de retourner au modèle alimentaire assez sain que j'avais établi en France: la nourriture est si différente et tellement chère...

Beating the COLD (with Style?)

Minus 30°C, Minus 22°F.

That's what I had to deal with for about 10 days. Now it is get slightly better, well the temperature is still around -13°C but it really feels "warmer" out there.

The school - Queen's University

Back in France, we have rather vintage universities and school equipments. Here in Canada, they do everything they can to make their buildings a very pleasant place to spend time at !!! 

Queen's University - Kingston, ON

Hello Canada !!! Part One - The Trip to Kingston, ON.

It's been a week now, since I have first got a foothold in Canada, precisely in Kingston, ON... And it has already been a whirlwind !!!
