Life after Intrax
This past month I have visited many European countries for my first time. Given a rich historical background, the proximity of different nations makes a small impact in blending together differences between borders. After visiting London on my own and a friend in Antwerp, Belgium, I traveled with my best friend Jing through Amsterdam and Croatia. At the end of our trip, we returned to Paris where I was able to give him a tour of all the best spots to visit thanks to my summer in the City of Light. I was really thankful to be able to share all my collected experience with someone close to me!
By the Adriatic Sea in Dubrovnik, Croatia
A day or two later, we parted ways when I took the train to Bordeaux to begin my education abroad program. My first week here has been quite an adjustment from Paris where every resource was readily available, a characteristic of a developed city. Internet is not readily available everywhere, but as a result we learn to use different sources of information. My comprehension and utilization of the French language obtained through my practice throughout the summer also proved useful when helping other students settle in to a completely new environment. My new knowledge of all the French food products I’ve learned about from working with Foodco has also been an asset to adapting to living in a more suburban region of France. Studying abroad will be an interesting comparison to working abroad from this summer. I hope my work experience this summer will aid my focus on what I aim to receive from my education in France.
Furthermore, I will be continuing my travel blogging at the following blog
