Free time in France

Your leisure time in France will be rich and varied – and it’s up to you what you want to do. Your options are nearly endless. For instance, if you like shopping you will think you are dreaming. The department stores and smaller boutiques are full of the latest fashion. Your wardrobe will become full of unique French garments.

Cozy cafés

Did you know that the word café is French? This is a word that will become pretty standard in your vocabulary, since visiting cafés with friends will be something you will do a lot. Hanging out in cafés is typically French. Order a café au lait and just sit and talk for hours. Can you think of a better way to practice your French?

Tour de France and much more

Near the Alps, there is a lot of fishing, skiing and mountain climbing. As you move towards the South, water sports and beach life rule. The French are fond of all kinds of sports, both individual and in teams. Cycling is one of the national favourites. When the prestigious Tour de France begins the whole country follows the contest from start to finish. Maybe that’s a sport you want to try during your high school exchange?
