La Sorbonne
My first contact with the
university is scheduled for Tuesday 11am. I don't really know what I
need to do it just says: “Rendez-vous”. I figured it's probably not a date, but apart from that I have absolutely no clue. I'm a
little nervous, especially since I haven't figured out my schedule
yet.
First thing I realize arriving at the Sorbonne: It is massive.
The second thing: The
staircases are marked with letters but god forbid putting them in
alphabetical order! Staircase F. 40m down the hall: Staircase Q.
Another 30m: Staircase J. What???
After about 20min of
running around the building, whilst passing the same people 2-3 times,
probably looking more and more confused with every walk-by, I finally
find staircase I and the Erasmus office.
Name?
Steffen Börschel!
Here's your student ID.
Off you go!
A one hour train ride, 20
minutes of running around in circles, 15 minutes of waiting outside
the office, and all I got was a lousy one minute meeting...
It's an almost
italianesque efficiency.
It is massive. That's what she said.
