Since I've been missing the outdoors and traveling abroad doesn't seem to be possible in the near future, I look back at my files to see if there's anything productive I can do with my archives.

This post has been written as part of the activities in one of my advanced French class about French bureaucracy. My students were encouraged to talk about one of their problems, describe their feelings and emotions going through this problem and share how they handled it.
