An amazing voyage to France!
August 25, 2018by: Sofia McGee - United StatesProgram: French Language & Culture Immersion in FranceI am a traveler! Ever since I was a little girl, I have always loved learning about different cultures! The Putney student learning trip to France allowed me to try new things and get out of my comfort zone. I enjoyed the seaside town of Trouville, learned about the history of Mont-Saint-Michel, shopped in the chaotic streets of Paris, kayaked around Pont du Gard with my homestay sister, and enjoyed a surf lesson in Cap Ferret. This learning experience really helped improve my conversational French and I recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their French in a quick and fun way.
