✨ Voices from the Experience ✨
“The Bridge Across Borders Culinary Exchange Program was life-changing for our students.
They gained invaluable, hands-on experience unique to this program—learning recipes from Michelin-recommended chefs over Zoom, visiting an escargot farm, cooking with locals, and tasting new foods.
These experiences offered students a rare opportunity to build relationships with host families, classmates, and industry professionals.”
— Chef Melissa
Thank you Chef Melissa , for sharing this reflection one year later.
It beautifully captures what our exchange program was always about: learning, cultural exchange, and human connection through food. 🇫🇷🤝🇺🇸
