I am currently staying in Orleans, France. I arrived on January 15th. Since that time I have been working in a GREMI laboratory as part of an internship in which I am researching a cryogenic etching process for wide aperture masks. Although this consumes the majority of my time, on weekends I have found time to visit various sites in Paris and castles around the countryside. Tomorrow, I travel to Dublin, Ireland for a few days.
