Catherine loves shopping
Catherine Folwell, a 20 year-old travellingaddict comes from a small town in England
and is currently a language assistant at Lycée
de Cornouaille. She started in October and
this is her first job in France. She works 11
hours a week but she finds that’s not
enough : she has so much free time. She
thinks the teachers are great and the
students are welcoming. Quimper is nice
because there are many kind people and she
has had no trouble making friends. Another
great advantage for her in Quimper is that
the shops are open later than in England :
she loves shopping. She also says the
touristic monuments like the cathedral are
just as beautiful as in England but she
appreciates that it is less busy here. She
sometimes misses her family though. She
has visited Germany and wants to go there
again maybe to work.
She started her studies two years ago and
after her time abroad she would like to study
one more year before finding a job in the real
world. For this year she had the choice to
study abroad or be an assistant : she prefers
making a break with her studies.
Catherine wants to become a translator
Today we interviewed Catherine Folwell
( nicknamed by her sister la folle qui va bien
because it’s a franglais, a mix between the
French word folle and the English well ). Her
sister is 23 years old and will be 24 in April.
Catherine was born on 5th April 1993 so she is
20. She’s always happy and her friends say
she’s a teacher’s pet ; she’s a true girl, very
sociable and generous. Her favourite kind of
music is the music of the 60s and 70s but she
dislikes recent pop music. Her hobbies
include chess –she says she’s an addict, a
chess-aholic- , math, languages, badminton,
playing the piano and reading adventure
books. She arrived in France in October and
she’s fond of French food –except cheese!– In
England she studies at the University of
Nottingham in her third year. She speaks
English, French, German, Dutch so she wants
to become a translator. After her fourth year
she will have two choices : first she can
prepare a Master degree or… find a job. She
said that the Master is a great choice but it’s
too much for her. She loves Quimper, which is
a pretty town but smaller than her place in
England.
