Paris 2027 Brochure

You'll be so much more than a tourist  when you spend an amazing month  with Professor Yollotl Lopez and students/professors from several  other California community colleges.  Imagine days spent strolling by the Seine after class, eating delicious French cuisine and enjoying custom-led trips to all the local must-see spots.   

Highlights include:

  • Lodging in central-Paris dorms in the St. Germain or
    Montparnasse neighborhoods, or in family stays
    ;
  • Guided visits to the Louvre,  Musée d'Orsay, and other cultural sites;
  • ENGL 111: Creative Writing where you will be instructed in four genres: fiction, non-fiction travel writing, poetry and playwriting while immersed in the Parisian city-scape! This class will challenge you to create original works just as many other American authors have done for centuries while exploring the beautiful City of Lights!
  • Ticket to a ballet, opera or comedy show performance;
  • Unsurpassed cultural activities– museums, day trips,
    monument tours, cheese tasting, walks and more
  • A weekend in Loire Valley with excursions to Chenonceau castle, the Chaumont gardens or castle, Tours and Loches
