Final comments
Try to keep away from your own nationality. Its very easy to spend all your time with (in my case) Anglophones. I had to make a concious effort to speak French. Above all make the most of the year. It will be hard at times and you will miss home but I can almost guarante you'll be very sad to leave.

Lyon-II was a good place to be. A very old building, but yet modern and lively.

Remember the following:
*Don't pack so much.
*Use your ATM card to get money once you arrive. Ask your bank if they have an international agreement with a foreign bank to save money on transcation fees.

“Online store founder”
Yuling Z
France, Graduate
Business Studies, 2021
Overall
Trilingual with the experience of managing an online store where I sell the french produtcs for Chinese people for 3 years. This experience lets me know that I have potential to promote the products, to develop new clients on social media, and to be an interface between suppliers, clients and the company. I am able to adapt to the international working environment. I am looking for an internship in marketing, communication or international business from now to september.
