 Hello

 Hello.My name is Yukari Ueno and I am studying abroad in Bordeaux.Bordeaux is a very beautiful city famous for its wine in the lower left of France.The climate is warm and it doesn't snow in winter.It's a pretty big city, so the center is always full of people, so it's not inconvenient for shopping (although most shops are closed on Sundays).

 At the French language school DEFLE that I attend, people from various countries gather, and classes are divided according to the level of each person's French. Perfect for leveling up.One of the attractions is that you can easily meet French people who are learning Japanese and make friends easily.I spend almost every day after school with my French friends.Japanese people come from various prefectures, but there are about XNUMX people, so I feel safe because I can interact with them moderately.In addition, France is geographically located in the middle of Europe, so it is easy to travel to Italy, Spain, England, Germany, etc. I think it is the best place for travel lovers.

 After spending six months here in Bordeaux, I feel that I have changed a lot.If you don't say it, French people won't understand you, and you will have a lot of discussions.Spending time with French people, whose home environment, interpersonal relationships, and way of thinking are completely different, you can realize things that you would never notice just by staying in Japan.If you are interested in France, I would definitely recommend studying abroad.You will be able to encounter many things that you cannot experience in Japan.
