From the moment I arrived at the Maison des \u00c9tudiants Canadiens (MEC), I immediately felt at home in Paris. As a French-speaking and Acadian New Brunswicker, being able to express myself in French with other French-speaking Canadians and Quebecers helped me overcome any linguistic insecurities I might have had. The same is true for all MEC’s Francophile and Anglophone students. MEC’s greatest asset is its cultural, linguistic and professional diversity. It is home to individuals with fascinating backgrounds from across Canada and around the world. The MEC is much more than just a student residence; it’s a place of personal enrichment thanks to a multitude of events. Whether it’s music concerts, painting workshops, sports competitions between residences of the Cit\u00e9 Internationale Universitaire de Paris (CIUP), movie and karaoke nights, or simply socializing on the terrace or the Grande Pelouse, there’s something for every resident.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
