Annika Sutter, Alumni Ambassador

How did you engage with the local community while abroad?
My favorite way of engaging with the community abroad was going to various restaurants recommended to me by my host family. It really helped me feel like a local and get off the beaten path, while also helping me engage in the local food culture! I discovered so many awesome dishes this way!

What was your favorite class while abroad, and why?
My study abroad experience was a little different than the traditional. I only had one class and I was abroad for a month, so I guess my favorite class was my conversations and culture class! We did so much, in and out of the classroom. Part of the class was going on day trip or cultural visits, and I learned a lot about French history and culture over the course of the month, while also improving my French language skills on the daily.
