Dear anita,

I understand your point. And you may be right.

There is something else that comes in consideration though. I’m starting my 5th year in medecine and I know that this is a very important year (as well as the 6th) because I’m studying for my final exam at the end of the 6th year. Depending on my performance on this exam, I will be able to choose what medical specialty I want and where in France I will practise (which means that I may move to another city in two years). I wonder if this is the best time for me to try living on my own. I fear losing too much time with chores, cooking, going to the supermarket…. But if I come back home, I’m afraid to stop gaining the confidence I’m gaining now from this new experience. I am a bit lost actually.
