Oliver H.

Student Traveler
School: George Washington University Hometown: Philadelphia, Pa

Hello! My name is Oliver Haddow and I am doing a gap year at The Sorbonne University in Paris, France. I'm from Philadelphia and plan on attending George Washington University in the Fall of 2019. My idea of perfect happiness in Paris is walking along the Seine with a saumon fumé sandwhich. I spend my days studying french, visiting the various museums, and exploring the city. I spent the beginning of my gap year visiting the toursity places around Paris, but I am now having fun just exploring the smaller, quieter, and local parts of the city. My favorite museum is the Musée d'Orsay because it holds many paintings by Paul Cézanne who is my favorite artist. By the end of my gap year I hope to be fluent in French and be well adapted to life as a Parisian.
