I would like to attend this trip to get an opportunity to visit different countries and compare the culture I have been raised in with the ones in these foreign countries. I would also be able to travel to France as it has been my wish to do so since I was very small. I Have studied French for Some years and it would be great to have a real life experience in where I could practice this beautiful language. Having this interest in History  as well I will be able to have a opportunity stand on ground where history has been made hundreds of years before.

I enjoy reading and sports such as Basketball and Tennis. History is one of my favorite subjects and consider that this is a major part of why I would like to attend on this trip. I see it as an excellent opportunity to meet new people and possibly some lifelong friends.
