Improving my French, meeting the locals, FREE!

[le val charente]

I met a nice French lady today who is keen to learn English, and will help me with my French in exchange, although direct swaps like these are not always how it happens.  The organisation has several branches in Charente and possibly Bordeaux, and is a bit like a very informal LETS scheme but for exchanging knowledge rather than services.  It is called "Réseaux d'Échanges Réciproques de Savoirs" and it could be worth asking at your Mairie if interested....  they also have picnics, various workshops etc.
