Le mot du jour: une banque

The word of the day is: bank

Today I marked a milestone in preparing for my trip. I opened a savings account on October1, titled it 'Europe Save,' and today my efforts and man heures have added up to something I can smile about, because today, I passed the four digit mark. My goal was to put away $300/mo and it hasn't been easy but I'm not afraid to say that I'm pretty damn proud of myself, considering I haven't had savings like that in over 2 years. I realize as far as savings go, I realize it's a meek competitor, but it's my little French nest egg and I plan on keeping it très très warm, until June.
