Our almost two weeks in Paris are over. I don't know what to think, this was an amazing experience that I will never forget. This was the opportunity that I was waiting for to visit Paris and put into a test the habilities that I have developped along my high school in the multicultural program. I learned a lot in here, and I am not talking just history of art, I am talking life, experiences, things that happened to me and mistakes that now I can learn from, so in the future everything is better.
There are some multicultural skills that I developped and practiced in here because even if I didn't want to, I had to, for example: multicultural communication, multicultural knowledge and multicultural engagement.
For the first one, that was a must. There were a lot of people in Paris, not necesarily french. We had to communicate with them to buy our food, buy souvenirs, and even to ask for directions to get to certain places. We got to practice a little bit our french, but english and spanish were present too, and I am glad that I know three languages because those opened me a lot of opportunities.
For the second one, knowledge, well this program was about that, we got to study by going to different places and museums all the history that Paris

Our almost two weeks in Paris are over. I don't know what to think, this was an amazing experience that I will never forget. This was the opportunity that I was waiting for to visit Paris and put into a test the habilities that I have developped along my high school in the multicultural program. I learned a lot in here, and I am not talking just history of art, I am talking life, experiences, things that happened to me and mistakes that now I can learn from, so in the future everything is better.

We got to practice a little bit our french, but english and spanish were present too, and I am glad that I know three languages because those opened me a lot of opportunities.
For the second one, knowledge, well this program was about that, we got to study by going to different places and museums all the history that Paris
keeps. It is incredible all the facts that I learned and considering that Paris is in action since the earliest of centuries, well I learned a lot.
For the last one, engagement, this one I learned it in the way. Since day one in the city we went to the streets and at the middle of the trip we went on our own. We had to learn and meet how parisians move through the city so we could do it too. We engage with them and it was really cool, because for a week a felt like a true french girl.
Also with this skills I want to mention that self management was something that I developped too, since we had to organize our time so well, so we could get on time to everything we were supposed to visit.
To finalize, this program of history of art in Paris is a trip that didn't disappoint, it was rough at the beginning, but those experiences just gave me memories, things to talk about and knowledge for the future. I don't regret living these weeks in France, with my friends, visiting everything we can. It was almost an honor that my school gave me this opportunity. And I promise, I'll be back. Thank you :)
