Destination: <\/strong>Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d’Architecture de Paris La Villette (ARCHIEE) 
Study Period: <\/strong>September 2019 – March 2020

My Thoughts on Studying Abroad <\/strong>
1. Outcomes
Living in a place with a completely different language and values have allowed me to see things from a broader perspective than what I did in Japan. In terms of language, I could hardly speak French, but I was able to meet and communicate with a lot of people and work on projects together. The specialized architecture classes at school were very interesting, but I think I learnt more about architecture in my daily life. As the school and dormitories were situated in a neighborhood that is not very safe, I was able to learn firsthand about the way poor people live and how public housing is built. Though you can learn a lot of things about famous architecture from drawings and photos, it will be more meaningful to go and experience the space and live in a different city. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Challenges
It is always better to be able to speak a language. There were many times when we both had very good ideas, but we could not discuss them in depth because we stumbled over the language. I regret that I should have learnt at least some terminologies related to architecture and design, not just everyday conversation. I also regret that I did not complete my study abroad program due to the coronavirus pandemic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advice to Prospective Students 
<\/strong>I think there is a lot of anxiety before you go, but once you are there, you have no choice but to spend the time there. Hence, I think you will be up for any challenges. Living there and experiencing culture shock is meaningful in itself. Paris has an image of being a fashionable place, but it is quite unsafe in some areas, so be careful and do not let your guard down. Also, I think it is important to travel around and get to know the architecture, design, food, lifestyle, and language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you have faced any problems during your stay at the study abroad destination or have any suggestions for improvement? 
<\/strong>I don’t face many problems because I had local friends and Japanese friends. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1050,"template":"","current_students_category":[44],"class_list":["post-1602","current_students","type-current_students","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","current_students_category-reports-of-study-abroad-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nStudy Abroad in Paris, France 2019 - 2020 - For Current Students - Geiko Global<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gg.design.kyushu-u.ac.jp\/en\/current_students\/study-abroad-in-paris-france-2019-2020\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Study Abroad in Paris, France 2019 - 2020 - For Current Students - Geiko Global\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Destination: Ecole Nationale Sup\u00e9rieure d’Architecture de Paris La Villette (ARCHIEE) Study Period: September 2019 – March 2020 Affiliation\/Grade at the start of studying abroad: Graduate School of Design, 2nd year in Design Strategy Course  My Thoughts on Studying Abroad 1. OutcomesLiving in a place with a completely different language and values have allowed me to see things from a broader perspective than what I did in Japan.
