Preface

Hello, my name is Christopher Whitacre, I am 22 years old, I am about to embark on a journey that will influence the rest of my life.  Tomorrow I will be taking an 8 hour flight to Paris, France then travel to Angers, France to start a month long agriculture program.  This program will expand my knowledge in international agriculture and suppliment my progress towards an Agronomy Management degree at Illinois State University.

This will be the first time that I will be in a different country and I am very excited to be in a new environment and be immersed in a different culture.  During the length of my program, I will be staying with a host family.  I can't wait to meet them and be involved in a different culture and way of life.  I am very excited for what lay ahead.
Preface Get Together
Clockwise order Storm Angone, Luc Chamberlain, Veronica Raufer, Me(Christopher Whitacre)

I would very much like to thank my loving parents, my uncle Tim and aunt Nancy, both of my grandparents, my girlfriend, friends, siblings and my soon to be host family for supporting me and helping me prepare for this trip.  I appreciate all that you have done for me and you are truly an influence in my life.
