My name is Chris, I'm 15 and from Newark, NJ. I am enjoying this trip so much with so many amazing people! It was a dream of mine to come to France. I'm learning a lot about French culture, people, food, experience and language. We have visited many beautiful places like Gordes, Les Baux, and two of my now favorite cities, Avignon and Aix-en-Provence. What has touched me most during this trip is the simple way I see French people treat eachother, with kindness. Since day one, I've noticed the French attention to detail. No matter how busy peopole are they will always greet you with a bonjour or bonsoir. Treating others kindly, formally, with love and respect seems to be an embedded part of the culture. I hope to bring some of this back with me to Newark.
