Travelling in the south of France | Oxford University student year abroad

Despite not having any time off during my time in France (the joys of a 5 month internship), I have managed to do a fair bit of travelling around the surrounding area of Forcalquier at the weekends. Having a bike has sort of made up for not having a car and there is nothing better than an early morning walk in the hills around the village but it is certainly exciting to go to the seaside and visit some amazing towns and cities.

    Sur le pont d'Avignon a BANGER? 😂 Very glad you got to see the bridge eventually.

    Hey Arthur, great video. I feel incredibly lucky that I get to go to France next week for a skiing holiday! (porte du soléil region) Got a question that I hope you would answer. How did you know you wanted to study languages at uni? I love A-level Spanish and English too but I just feel that if I study solely Spanish or Spanish or French my options for the future will be mainly focused to being a language teacher or interpreter or translater. So currently my goal is English at Oxford. I know there’s a more positive way to look at this, so I’d really appreciate if you would be able to help me with your opinion. Thanks 💚

    Hi, I knew I wanted to study languages at uni because they were the only subjects I was interested in knowing more about - do what you enjoy most. I also did not think about my career path after uni because languages don't restrict you to teaching and translating - you can go into marketing, entertainment, law, finance, and the public service sector among other things if you want to. I want to be able to use my languages after uni but you don't have to and you learn enough about other things to not have to restrict yourself to stereotypical 'language jobs'. Employers often look for language skills in other areas including those I've just mentioned so don't worry about limiting your future prospects. I'm biased but I would definitely consider studying English and Spanish at uni for a bit of extra spice...
