ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) — It was all about good food and goodbyes for several students in the mountains on Sunday.
A delegation of 31 students from France came to the mountains as part of a cultural and academic exchange.
On Feb. 16, 2020, there was a farewell potluck and BBQ dinner at Franklin School after a busy week.
Four schools worked with the nonprofit organization Asheville Sister Cities to coordinate it all.
One French exchange student, Damien Chevallie, said some of his highlights from his trip abroad included the food and the nice and energetic people he met.
In April 2020, Asheville students will travel to France in exchange.
