Like every cognizant, major life decision I’ve made in my twenty-four years on this planet, I made the decision to teach English in France for a year on a complete whim. In the past, I chose my college because it had a speech team (an activity that, at the time, I technically could have lived without); I studied abroad in France because the English pound made my wallet weep; and I’m pretty sure I would have kept adding majors and minors forever if my adviser hadn’t started tacking on years to my graduation date. I could boil all these choices down to one question: why not?
Hence the title of this blog. “Pourquoi Pas” means “why not” in French. A fitting title for my life, really.
