I have truly enjoyed my time abroad so far. Some of the highlights include visiting a rabbit farm, traveling to Nice, and shopping at different markets. Moreover, the markets in Toulouse gave us the opportunity to be fully emerged into the French culture. We were able to speak to different people, who were not shy to share their cultural background or where they came from. Some only spoke French, while others were fluent in both English and French. The best part was trying out  a wide array of foods, including a cheese and mashed potato dish, coffee, duck, and an assortment of cheeses. On the weekend, a group of us decided to visit Nice, which proved to be a great decision because we were able to visit the beach and take a break from class. Lastly, the rabbit farm was such a great experience because we learned a lot about how they are raised and was able to enjoy a home cooked French meal.
