Over this past summer I traveled to France for a cultural exchange. I lived with a family for three weeks and was able to improve my French in real conversations and also see how even basic tasks such as grocery shopping is different. I feel like the trip really opened me up to trying a lot of new things such as food and experiences. For example, I have not had the chance in Lexington to eat a lot of seafood because we are so far from the ocean. In France, I was staying 5 minutes from the English Channel so I was able to eat a lot of sea food during my stay. I had mussels for the first time and they were one of my favorite foods that I got to try. After this trip I feel like I’m a lot more likely to want to try a new food or activity that I would have previously been skeptical or not tried at all.
