Greetings from Annecy to all our students across the world.
I am sure that all of us who enjoy combining travel and learning a language are looking forward to a bright new start .
With the end of travel restrictions, borders and minds are once again opening and horizons are widening as we begin a new chapter.
For the first time in 2 years, Annecy is happy to be once again hosting sporting and cultural events that have made her one of the most visited towns in France.
Here are a few events which might interest you:
Festival International du Film d’Animation 2022
This festival dedicated to animation and cartoons has been held in Annecy since 1960. It is the world meeting place for the animation film industry and every year all the top people in the profession come together to buy/sell but also to exchange ideas and see the best that is being done in the field.
