EF Tour travelers met for their third out of six meetings for their trip. Travelers started off by listening to Mr. Petrotta speak about Italy and some of the history behind the historical country. He included different examples of art, buildings, and food from Italy.

“I liked that we learned about how to count in Italian and about different places in both Italy and Paris,” senior Thelion Simmons said.

Mr. Lumetta then followed with a timeline of the history of Paris. He informed students of the history of Paris and different examples of places travelers will potentially visit.

“I learned a lot about the trip and with every meeting we have the more and more excited I get,” senior Vincent Davi said.

This meeting then wrapped up with the final bus and room assignments. The next meeting will be held on December 9th.
