AgeSong welcomes visiting students from abroad. This summer, Myrianne and Matt are visiting medical students from Paris, who started out at AgeSong Bayside Park, and are now visiting other AgeSong communities in San Francisco (Hayes Valley and Laguna Grove) and Oakland (Lakeside Park). Following are topics covered in the guide:
Matthias and Myrianne, two medical students from France, are visiting AgeSong. They both are fluent in English. Myrianne has a beginner’s knowledge of German and Italian. She loves tap dancing, singing, running, fitness training, and traveling. Myrianne says, “I feel concerned about making people feel good around me, and helping people who need to be assisted and who are losing their autonomy.” The students are interested in AgeSong’s philosophy and mission to counter the mainstream understanding of aging as decline and/or disease with a more expansive, humanistic, and creative vision and approach.
