"I haven't been to France for a while," Di said, rather thoughtfully. Perhaps this summer? She could do with a break, after all. Something to take her mind off... other, [much] less pleasant things. "I'll pay a visit to Louvre next time I do happen to go there, I think." She smiled slightly.
Mixed heritage! "Nice," Di said. "My parents..." Pause. "Both my parents are Russian." Not.
"I admit I don't know much about them myself," Di confessed. Fina, she knew. Other than that? Pretty much no one. "I hope I can get to know them better, but I expect it will take some time." Sylvie smiled. "I did always like to explore when I was a student. I mean, you would think we could explore more as we have the time now, but I have yet to get around to it," she shrugged. They definitely had to remedy that now, didn't they? Exploring would just have to go on her to-do list. "Oh, it's rather beautiful in the winter. I did love living in Paris, but I must say I really do love being back on this side of the channel." France and Paris had their appeal, but being back on home soil set her at ease a bit. She really had been away for too long. "I'm sure you will enjoy it. Beautiful place, especially on a quiet afternoon." she added with a smile as she thought about all the times she would just wander about on those slow afternoons.
Russian...."I've been to Russia once, of course it was a very quick visit as we were backpacking and all." Which that reminded her, she did need to visit again. "Well, mum is actually French-American and I think might have so French in him as well." To be honest, she really wasn't all to sure now about her parent's complete heritage, but she did have an idea at least.
Sylvie again glanced over at her other colleagues and nodded. "I meet Sage at the feast and I know I went to school with a few people, but I'm not completely familiar with everyone." Faces and names, she still needed to really work on that as well. "I do really hope to get to know everyone better as well. I'm sure it would take some time, but I think it can be done." Now finding the time to meet everyone was just going to be an issue. |
