4 Châteaux, 2 Jours!

4 Castles in 2 days?? Yeah, I'm pretty lucky to say the least. In this video, I share some of the beautiful sights from the four catles we visited on our first weekend excursion with IES Abroad! In order, we visited: Château d'Amboise, Château Royal de Blois, Château de Chambord, et Château de Chenonceau.

After a busy first few days of orientation, this weekend getaway was the perfect break we needed. I had so much fun learning lots of history and practicing my french reading skills. Additionally, we got so much time to mingle and get to know each other much better in only two days. I hope you enjoy this short little highlight montage of my trip with IES Abroad Nantes. Stay tuned for my next adventure!
