Interview with Joey

Joey Bazler told me a little about his own personal experience in France, and I found that it was pretty similar to my own. He shared my desire to travel overseas, but we differed in our language skills. I took Spanish in high school, while Joey took French and continued studying the language in college. Once he got there, he realized what a wonderful decision he had made.

“France's culture is so different than our own, and I was really interested in visiting and experiencing the different aspects of French everyday life. In addition, my interest was piqued by the amazing amount of history present in French cities and towns. I would go back, though I really want to explore other European nations as well. Part of the reason I loved France so much was that I was always experiencing new things, and would like to do the same in other countries.” This is definitely something I am interested in: experiencing new and different cultures, visiting other places and seeing anything and everything that will add to my knowledge of the world.
