Hi, my name is Ben Lunders. I am in my final semester at UCD finishing a
degree in Political Science and History. I have always loved to travel and see
new places. The thrill of seeing new settings with different cultures, rich
history and unique food cannot be equaled.

One of the most beautiful and odd natural settings that I have continued to
wonder about is Calanques National Park on the edge of the city of Marseille in southern
France. I went there in 2007, and hope to go back some day before I die. These house fishing villages, a variety of aquatic life and WWII bunkers amongst other things. I
look forward to getting a better understanding from my physical geography class
on the formation of this landscape which seems to be deteriorating as you look
at it. These white and gray cliffs sprout out of the ocean creating wonderful
coves, caves and other places to hide. Go visit Marseille!
