oh interesting, some schools send memo for extension of resumption date, so i want to believe it depends on the regions.... region with low case still retain normal resumption.... i wish you the best in your M2, try get 16/20

Thanks bro.

I will try my best to get that number but its really difficult.

However, my school don't give general grade over 20. It's more like a CGPA thing in my school.

Hello flyway,

I am not qualified for Visale becos of my age (>30). Also it's difficult finding accommodation in Grenoble. If you've already applied for housing, we can share accommodation together to reduce cost, or what do you think?

I am sorry about that. I haven't experienced or know one that have experienced same issue. You should write Campus France to know your options.

And for shared accommodate, some residences have what they call T1, which is like a room and parlour. So its much easier to share than the studio apartment.

Prospective student should know that next session will be starting in Novemeber which is a new development due to the COVID-19, most M2 student doing their internship are yet to defend and also they are hoping the extension will give room to student who have not applied for VISA yet to meet up, the first semester will also be online, be prepared.

Maybe it varies across schools. For my school, we are resuming September 2nd. Lectures start September 3rd. Some departments will resume September 1st. And lectures will hold in the school environment -Physical meeting.

Before now, my school had earlier announced that freshmen or M1 students will resume January 7th, 2021. But start first semester online. But with the recent development in Covid-19 in France, I don't know if they have changed such decision.

Regards

Congrats. I am happy you finally got a PhD in France. What about the one you got in Honh Kong?

James4bright:
Bro, how often do you get to see Nigerians in France? Are there illegal Nigerians over there?

What's it like to be illegal over there as an African?

I see mostly PTDF scholars and school mates.

I have seen some illegal residence here and I don't think they have any issues. Police don't do stop an search. As long as you are here, no one will police you around. However, I do not know how they work or earn money.

Please guys lets talk about this place tomorrow.

Cc DisGuy, justwise can we got to front page again?

More from Louvre Museum

So we got inside

More

Next, we headed to Louvre Museum.

It's large with an underground paid museum

Pics 1, 2, and 3 are entrance to Louvre Museum and view of Paris from the entrance

I took the last picture as I left the cathedral with in a sad mood

Suddenly, I was before the Notre Dame Cathedral with hundreds of other tourists and visitors taking pictures and viewing the building being renovated.

I won't say I was happy, ofcourse not, I wasn't because I prepared to see the glory of the structure only for me to see it locked and being rebuilt.

Hundreds of workers, caterpillars, etc were inside working and trying their best to return the cathedral back to its original glory.


So, I didn't take much pictures before we left

The river behind serves as a resting place or romantic environment for lovers. So we met alot of couples and lovebirds who took a space to enjoy the company of each other.


Cc DisGuy, justwise please repush to frontpage for the Sunday viewing pleasure of Nairalanders.

Cc Richdee1

As we got closer to the cathedral, we beheld the gigantic building.

I think the cathedral in Nantes took same design as Notre Dame.

Unfortunately, the building is being renovated after the fire incident that occurred last year.

We went in from behind, through the river that passed directly behind the cathedral. Let picture speak.

Picture 1&2 is the view as we got closer

Cc DisGuy, justwise please repush to frontpage for the Sunday viewing pleasure of Nairalanders.

We took the Metro to Cathedral Notre Dame.

Pics 1 is the underground metro station.
Pics 2 is the street leading to Notre Dame, coming from the back of the cathedral

Hi Guys,

I am sorry for missing yesterday's update. I visited a family and wasn't able to make an update.

Happy Sunday to everyone.

Let's get this started.

After seeing that everything looks beautiful, we decided to leave (we obviously don't have any option).

However, I didn't leave without some pictures of the exit surrounding.


With these pictures, PSG stadium shouldn't be a new thing to us again.

Now, lets converge here tomorrow for the next place on the list of places I visited.

Good night.

You can drop your comments if you want. Lol

The immediate surrounding, facing the stadium

Now, this is the main face of the stadium but not the main entrance to the stadium. The main entrance is the Gate A and B.

This is just the face of the stadium and the way for players and VIPs.

Last picture: Same way we came for a tour, others also came for same purpose.

Still moving round the stadium

I told you you don't need to bother visiting here except you want to watch live match

I meant it when I said it, and you will soon agree with me.

Moving round the stadium.

The other structure is their boutique. The place they collect more money from you aside your ticket money.

On the other hand, I noticed I have become more real to my being broke. I think it's this way because here, being broke is not a dead sentence. People will first go towards the path of most cheap when making purchase. No one spends to show rather make planned budget because everyone realizes that making money isn't easy.

Thus, I have learned to drop the ego of not owning up to the unavailability of anything I don't have. Without you even asking, I am quick to tell you why I didn't do anything or have anything. The answer is simple, I don't have money.

I went round, taking pictures including private ones for personal consumption.

Picture 1 &2: The entrance to the stadium. Gate 1&2 or A & B

As I got closer, the solid structure was standing tall and huge. I have always dreamed of visiting this stadium. Turns out there nothing special. The only thing special in anywhere you haven't been is the distance. Because, the places you dream to be or go to, they are people who live there or see it as a common place.

The solution to overcoming this distance becomes complicated because you'd not only need a Visa, you will also need a good amount of money to overcome this distance and bring yourself closer to this common place that people pass on daily basis.

There's a bypass or tunnel very close to the stadium, passing very close to the stadium.

As you get closer, the look changes (Obviously )

Paris Saint-German.

This was the first place I visited.

If you have not visited this stadium, I doubt there's any need to tour it since I got the entire image except the inside.

Let me save you the story.

1 & 2: How the stadium looks if you are approaching it from behind towards Gate/Entrance A,B,C

So the tour began.

I visited 4 places. But I have forgotten the name of one (its actually a museum).

I visited these places and I will be sharing their pictures in this order

1. PSG Stadium
2. Notre Dame Cathedral
3. Museum
4. Eifel Tower

For obvious reasons, I couldn't go into PSG stadium because its closed due to Covid-19. Also, because of the repairs going on in Notre Dame, I wasn't able to tour it very well. So pardon the pictures from these places.

So lets get started.

For the next batch of PTDF scholars, enjoy the view of IFP school

Becoming a scholar is more than just studying, its like family of people with like minds.

Though I don't know how to make new friends, for those that make me their friends, I understand perfectly how to be a friend to people. Thanks to Ken for having me.

And also IFP school.

This is IFP school
