France!

I was very immersed in the culture and learned a lot more than what I had read and learned about France in my previous research and studies of the country. The trip allowed me to experience authentic day to day life and true culture in many places of France. With interacting with locals, adapting new routines, and participating in cultural traditions, I achieved a deep understanding of the French values and norms that cannot be known only through research itself. With that, I met lots of amazing people from all over the country which was really refreshing. And also made the trip 10x better and memorable.
