Lille


Of brick roads, old buildings, churches and wonderful people, Lille is a beautiful city! It is located in the North of France. It has the perfect mix of urban and rural life! They use old buildings for modern shops and theatres, which gives off such a different vibe. There is an efficient transportation system - with buses, trams, and a metro - which makes it fun to explore. And it isn't too big of a city, so it's easy to find your way back home.

Can't wait to learn new things, both in and outside of school! It's such a different experience to stay in a dormitory with 7 other people, and to be in a new environment with a completely distinct culture.

Spent my first few days here exploring the city and meeting the other exchange students. But it's time to hit the books for now!
