"Merci beaucoup à l'Alliance Française et la Fondation Christian Humann pour une expérience incroyable. Merci aussi à Madame Bazin et Alex pour un excellent séjour à Paris. Je suis très contente d'avoir eu l'opportunité d'améliorer ma compréhension de la langue Française en France, et j'ai pu participer à des activités très amusantes. J'ai aussi appris beaucoup sur le culture Française et j'ai eu l'opportunité de voir plusieurs régions différentes de la Côte d'Azur. Je suis très heureuse d'avoir rencontré Atiya, Gia et Erin parce que elles sont très sympa et on a eu beaucoup d'amusement ensemble. Merci encore pour une expérience que je n'oublierai jamais."
