SU Abroad in Strasbourg: One of the best decisions I've ever made

I loved studying abroad in Strasbourg through SU Abroad. It was one of the best experiences of my life. I had the most amazing host mother and host brother, living in the heart of downtown Strasbourg easily accessible to everything. I only spoke French with them, ate authentic French cuisine and was truly immersed in the culture. I took all French classes at the SU center, so my language skills greatly improved. I met some of my best friends that I know I will talk to for many years to come. I had the opportunity to travel almost every weekend, totaling 11 different countries. Towards the end of the fall semester, my friends and I got to stroll through the quaint streets during the Christmas Market season. Strasbourg is the perfect city for study abroad: not too big so you feel like a native, but not too small that there was always something to do. Whether it was a quick bite at a boulangerie or a drink with a friend after class, I miss my time there every day. I look forward to the day I can go back and hopefully be a permanent resident in France.
