Being French

May 16, 2018 by Justin Bourdeau

Today is the last full day of our adventure. We have seen so many monuments of history and culture. Today being Sunday, there was a lot of foot traffic on the streets. People walking to work, the local boulangerie, a café, or the markets.

Chartres Cathedral

May 14, 2018 by Deb Grant

Today we left Tours by bus and traveled to Chartres Cathedral. This is the first day it has rained. We have been fortunate to have good weather during our tour. Our guide told us it rains here approximately 200 days each year!

Carnac, Musee du Champignon, and More

We traveled to Carnac today. At Brittany, our guide Awen helped us understand the history of the megaliths. Students made a circle around one of the largest stones, which weighs 30 tons.

Mont Saint-Michel

May 10, 2018 by Alexis Bellows

Today we went to Saint-Michel in Normandy France. We learned many history facts about this place. We found out that about eight people are left living on the island. They mostly maintain the grounds. Another interesting fact about the grounds is that “high” tide is really only during a new moon and a full moon. So the water doesn’t get that high until then.

Social Responsibility

March 28, 2018 by Katie Keszey

When Stacy Garciadealba was getting ready to graduate from high school, she traveled from her hometown of Grafton to tour colleges all along the East Coast. She left every visit feeling that “this isn’t for me.” She was the oldest in her family, the first child to go through the college process—“I called myself ‘the trial child,’” she said—and she’d be paying her own way.

America: Melting Pot, or Something Else?

February 14, 2018 by Katherine De Ruyck

You can tell a native New Yorker from a non-native by how aware they choose to be of their presence on the subway. They sleep, ensured by their city-formed adaptation to waking up just before their stop. They read books. Before cell phones, newspapers were likely a popular form of dissociating.
