France: French Immersion Adventure, 2026
June 30, 2026
Hi! It’s Emma and Lia! Today was our first day in Paris! Most of us were on the flight from New York and we all tried to sleep. Finally we got to France, and got to our hotel and got assigned our rooms. There are 3 bunk beds which is pretty cool. Then we went to this really yummy lunch place and the chicken fingers were great. We sat and ate for a bit and then went back to the hostel. Everyone is really nice and we are having so much fun. After everyone rested and got ready, we walked to Montmartre and saw Sacre Coeur. The view was beautiful. We saw all the locks on the fences and there was a musician playing music on the steps. We then went to dinner and are eating at a place called La Cuisine de Relais Gascon. The food is very good and there are many options to choose from. After dinner we are going back to the hostel to go to sleep early as we are all exhausted. Bye! Au revoir miss you guys!

Bonjour! Today we woke up in our hotel in Paris and had breakfast: bread, yogurt, coffee and hot chocolate. We took the bus to the train station, then the train to Grenoble and then on to Mizoen, in the Alps to our “gite” (inn). We explored and took pictures of the mountains (very pretty). Some played hacky sack in the yard and some cards at the tables. For diner, we had lasagna, salad, and celebrated Veronica’s birthday with some cake. After, we did a community contract, going over our itinerary and activities for the rest of the trip.

SAW: beautiful mountains.
HEARD: lots of French convos.
TASTED: good dinner.
SMELLED: fresh mountain air.
