Earlier this fall, a Belgian Purdue University Fort Wayne exchange student named Margaux Pintelon approached WBOI about volunteering to get some experience with audio editing.
So, we gave Margaux a recorder for the semester and we asked her to interview other exchange students about their experiences in Fort Wayne.
The series is called “Margaux’s Microphone.” Today we hear from twenty-three year old Lucas Lovén, who is from Sweden and is studying electrical engineering.
In their conversation, Lucas and Margaux talk about mastodons, Hungry Howie’s pizza, and ice hockey.
Interviewees were asked to share with listeners a song from their home country. Lucas selected "If You Were Here" by Kent.
Tune in to Morning Edition and All Things Considered throughout December to hear more interviews with other exchange students in the series “Margaux’s Microphone."
