Bonjour! My name is Sarah, I am a third year Global Studies major at UCLA. I am the Program Correspondent for the "Global Studies: Global Challenges in Postcolonial France" study abroad program. I hope to share my experiences with other students and people who are wishing to travel. Visit http://www.ieo.ucla.edu/ for more information!
Even though college students, especially those studying abroad, have to be careful to stay within budget, there are just some things you can't miss out on... like FOOD. Here's a quick rundown of seven of the top food items you must try in Paris (no matter the price.) Even if your wallet is sad, your stomach will be happy!!
Being a study abroad student means you have to watch your spending-- there are some luxuries that you'll have to give up especially if you're from LA and you're privileged enough to have pressed juice and avocado toast at your disposal. But don't fret, you can find delicious food in Paris that won't break the bank! Such great deals, they'll make you say "Holla for a euro!"
I found out about about these various apps and website during my travels and wish I had heard about them sooner! Download these apps and look through them to ease your journey throughout Europe.
Many of the UCLA Travel Study Programs, including the Global Studies Paris program, work through ACCENT International, a study abroad program. ACCENT helped organize our housing situation, the site for our lectures, as well as our metro pass. But one of the best perks of studying abroad through ACCENT, is that they give you this sweet identification card that shows that you are a student and it help you get into the top attractions around the city for free! Here is a list of all of the amazing places we got in free by showing our ACCENT card!
In Paris there are countless museums, exhibits, and cathedrals to see and explore. But after all of that, sometimes it’s nice to just take some time outdoors and rest before hitting up the next top tourist site.
