Anica Shah gives the Youth Choir perspective on the recent trip to Lourdes and Paris

My tour to Lourdes and Paris was fabulous. Apart from all the late nights and then waking up early, it was so fun and a great experience. My favourite parts of the trip to Lourdes were the international mass, the garden party, and the concerts. 

In Paris, we mainly only had free time, and I enjoyed visiting the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame and the Louvre Museum. We took many pictures and got a small tan. I hope we can fundraise enough to go every year. ​

As well as us enjoying the trip, the people who got the experience of listening to us appreciated it thoroughly as well. We even had a couple who put in 20 euros and then swapped it with 50 euros at our concert. As well as having this experience, I also got to know everyone more and grow stronger faithfully.​
