Maxwell's Journey to France

Current Location

Cancale, France

Hi! My name is Maxwell Pirtle and I’m studying all things computer science in Rennes, France. I’ve enjoyed talking about my journey with others and I'm excited to now share it with you!

Logbooks

This week I'm writing about...well, this week. What does a normal week in Rennes look like as a student?

Journals

This week I'll be delving into how the French government is structured. I'll talk about a few key institutions that make up the current governemnt (the Fifth Republic) and how these compare to the US.

Field Notes

The environment in Brittany is distinct from other parts of France. With regular rainy weather, the large Villaine river flowing through and a large coastline, water has a big impact on the region.

Albums

This album contains pictures of different places in Rennes to give a feel for what it's like to live here. I've also included pictures from different seasons to prove that it doesn't only rain here!
