In the Fall of 2022, Dixie Metscher spent three and a half months studying in Lyon, France. She had many captivating experiences in Lyon. However, she still daydreams about her trips to the market on the Quai Saint-Antoine. She felt most connected to traditional Lyonnaise culture while strolling through the bustling market, absorbing the smells of praline pastries, fresh bread, and local cheeses. They were just as enticing on her last visit as on her first.
