A summer in France

Ever since the 8th grade I have been taking French classes and it just hit me that I think I'm almost done with French. So, what better way to take my last French class in France? This summer I will be studying abroad in La Rochelle for three and a half weeks, and then in Paris for the rest of the time and I couldn't be more excited. This will be my third time going, (definitely not my last) and I can't thank my professor, my university and most importantly my parents enough for allowing me to do this. 

The first time I went to France I was 12 and I was so young that sadly I didn't really know what was going on. The next time I was 17 and I traveled with my high school through and exchange program. To this day that experience is still the best experience of my life. Seeing all the history and being part of the French culture for a change, I refused to leave and was always asking "when can I go back?" The opportunity came sooner than I thought because my French professor told me about the application. I talked it over with my parents and they told me to go for it. 

So June 27th I will be getting on plane to go to France and I cannot wait.
So say hello to "foreign girls who don't speak English," a lot of baguettes, more time exploring France and most importantly, the trip of a life-time.
