Hello and thanks for stopping by my blog! My name is Amanda Lee Jones and I am a college student at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I am currently working on my Bachelor's of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics. I am going to France for the month of June (2009) so I thought I would keep an online blog for family and friends to read and imagine that they were here with me!

I will be in France!!
Before I begin telling you about what I will be doing exactly I would like to thank everyone that is making this trip a possibility and dream come true for me:
John Vreyens and the IPFANS Department at the U of M, Norma Jones, Keith and Gretchen Levings, and Jeanne Glinski
I will be attending Le Groupe ESA in Angers (an-jay), France. This is a four-week program for foreign students. The program incorporates the French way of life, France's role in the European Union, French culture, and French Agriculture. I will be living with a host family that seems very sweet and welcoming!
Angers is a historic city located in the heart of the Loire Valley in Western France. It is a beautiful city of 160,000 inhabitants; it is recognized for its parks, gardens, theatres, museums, symphony orchestra, and a 12th century fortress which has the longest tapestry in the world.
