Cameron Flynn, University of Michigan Class of 2018 and former participant in Middlebury in Paris’ program (Spring 2016-17) recalls highlights of his experience as a French Heritage Society intern : “This summer I had the opportunity to intern with the French Heritage Society in two castles in the county Périgord, the Château de Commarque, next to Sarlat-la-Canéda, and the Château de Montréal, in Issac. I was the only American and the only Anglophone, which allowed me to immensely improve my ability to spontaneously use the French language. Alongside Francophones, I brought visitors on guided tours (in either English or French). At the Château de Montreal, I lived with a family from Montferrand in their home and I ate with them, all while having the chance to immerse myself in their historic archives as well, an incredible experience!”
