Building rockets and parachutes!
September 25, 2024by: Elizabeth R.Program: CIEE HS Summer Abroad: Engineering & Aerospace in Toulouse
It's an amazing experience, and also fun. It lets you interact with the culture of other countries and also meet new people who are very nice and welcoming. I loved building a rocket with my friends that went at least 500 meters and deploying a pretty good parachute.
