Most importantly, as a recent graduate, it seemed ideal to get practical working experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarah flew with Aer Lingus from Dublin to Bordeaux. From the airport, she took the public bus to the train station. She gazed out the window and marvelled at the thriving city. During the train journey, she remarked on how beautiful the lanscape of the region, Nouvelle Aquitaine was. After arriving at<strong> Chalais<\/strong> train station, Paul met Sarah and brought her to <strong>La Giraudi\u00e8re<\/strong> where she met the other volunteers &#8211; a Spaniard, a Portuguese and a Russian. They shared dinner made by the Russian, Vladimir and spoke about daily life and duties at the house. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-800x534.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-60x40.jpg 60w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/internship-france-student.jpg 854w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Many students from Ireland have chosen La Giraudiere for their French experience.
