Speaking of MayX, let’s hear from one of our world travelers about her time on the Rhine!!!
Alison is a junior in ZTA who is loving her abroad experience 🩷
“I am on The Rhine: Life on the Line May X! Throughout this course, we have been studying the effects of World War II along the Rhine River border of France, Germany, and Switzerland. So far, we have been to Mainz and Heidelberg, Germany and Strasbourg, France as well as many other cities during day trips. We have learned about the Alsace region and the struggle between France and Germany to claim it as their territory for decades. This has created a unique cultural identity for the people of this region that we have seen throughout local interactions, food/dining, architecture, and more! I am so excited for the final part of our trip where we will visit the Black Forest and Basel, Switzerland before returning to the Sates. I am so grateful for this experience and have loved getting to know everyone experiencing it with me! ”
