My Erasmus in Lyon

My first day was hectic. It felt surreal touching down in Lyon airport. I was finally doing it. I got a taxi to my accommodation. I had to lug all my bags to the office to sign in and get my keys, that was a workout in itself.

The first day of my Erasmus in Lyon

It would be a big lie if I told you that my first day in France was memorable or happy. That now being in a long distance, it was both. However, I do not want to explain it to you with the information I have now after taking three months here, but recreate to you how I lived it then.

Bicycles, Wine, and Français - a NZ Student's Lyon Exchange

My name is Emma and I’m an exchange student at Jean Moulin Lyon III for the spring semester of 2022. I’m from Wellington, New Zealand - and I didn’t realize how exciting that was until I arrived in France and my nationality became my defining feature. I admit it’s strangely satisfying telling people that ‘New Zealand is indeed far away,’’ and that ‘the New Zealand accent is vastly superior to the Australian accent.’

Fun fact !

Le cinéma a été créé à Lyon par les frères Lumière. Lorsque vous vous baladez à Lyon, vous pourriez traverser la rue où le premier film a été tourné, dans le quartier de Montplaisir.
