Personal comments
I've worked in a restaurant like a waitress during the summer holidays in full-time.Working during the vacances can make some money, also to speak to different kind of people, to know the society. Profit some free days to the museum. I've been to Musée Louvre 4 times, during the free open days. So and the other museums and historical monuments.
