The document summarizes a student exchange program between schools in Neumarkt, Belfort, Lund, and Zaragoza. Students from Neumarkt visited Belfort from May 15-20, 2011. While there, they stayed with host families, attended school, and experienced French culture through food, customs, and sights. The students found the French pupils friendly despite some language barriers, were impressed by the large homes and luxurious equipment, enjoyed diverse local foods, and appreciated the custom of greeting with kisses. The trip provided exposure to both traditional and modern tourist attractions in Belfort.
