My two-month (December 2009 - Jan 2010) experience in France was one of the best decisions I've made. I was one of the few selected people who were able to participate in this AFS student exchange program. When a golden opportunity like this came knocking at my door, who was I to refuse? So now I'd like to share with you a glimpse of the mesmerizing and sophisticated France through my eyes.
#1: AFS Orientation in Paris
Participants from all around the world
Getting ready for Christmas
Champs-Élysées: A prestigious avenue in Paris
The Eiffel Tower
(Didn't need to tell you what this was, did I?)
#2: Home (A Quaint Village known as Bessy)

#3: School

#3: Out & About
During the 2-week Christmas break, I spent a week skiing at Valmeinier, Savoie.
Christmas!
On the way back to Bessy, we stopped by to visit the relatives of my host which was at Grenoble.
The scenery there was magnificent.
In the month of January, I was taken to many wonderful museums.
I had a very enjoyable adventure in France. I urge others to consider giving this programme a try!
