You will do much more than taking French classes in a
Parisian immersion setting!
Visit the historical heart of Paris
Feel the beat of Parisian night life
Wander through the bohemian centres
Picnic by your favourite bridges and parks,
Commune with the souls of passed famous people at the
Lachaise cemetery
Loose yourselves in the Louvre museum
Get dizzy from atop the Eiffel Tower
Enjoy the avant-garde vibes of street performers
Be awed by the aristocratic opulence of Versailles.
Just enough to get you to love Paris for the rest of your life!

Flight for the Paris Field School
› Given that each student has unique circumstances, we are
giving students the option to book their own flights.
› We will identify a group flight that students can join with
Kwantlen faculty or they can make alternate arrangements as
long as they arrive at the expected meeting points on time.
Students may decide to stay in Paris instead of coming back on
June 3 to complete the Berlin Field School , the Fine Arts Field
School, or to explore on their own the rest of the country.

Visas
› As of January 31, 2011 Canadian citizens do not need visas to
visit France or Germany for less than 90 days
› Non-Canadians might require a visa to enter either country. NonCanadians should also check with Canadian Immigration to
ensure that they will maintain their visa or permanent resident
status while outside of Canada.
