The Beginning

Hello everyone! 

My name is Beth. I am a high school senior at a medium sized school in a Twin Cities suburb. Okay, maybe a pretty small suburb. Through this small suburb's local Rotary Club, I have just applied for a Foreign Exchange. This interest in traveling grew exponentially when I went on a school trip to Europe this summer. I visited London, Paris, Versailles, Florence, and Rome. It was the time of my life. And this wasn't just because I got to see the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, or the Vatican, it was because I got to experience each culture's... well... culture! It wasn't the museum guides that I liked, it was the shop owners and the restaurant owners in the towns off the beaten path that I connected with. This learning experience drove me to find the Rotary Exchange. I hope to return to France, the most. I have taken 2 years of French in high school, and I hope to expand that French basis to a usable level.

Bien à vous,
Beth
