Hello!!

My name is Alana Gerlach, I am a Portuguese and English Languages Professor and a writer in my free time (when I have 😀). I love teaching English, children's books and poems. Travelling, reading and cooking are my favorite hobbies.

This padlet is to share things from a place where I had one of the biggest and niciest expiriences that I've ever had in my life, PDPI 2025 - Teacher's summer course at MSU - MICHIGAN/USA.

I'll show you a little bit of the place where I had this amazing time. This padlet have a little of everything from this place! 💚

Attractions & Things to Do on Mackinac Island, MI

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Mackinac Island is one of Michigan’s most popular places to visit in the summer, situated in Lake Huron along the Straits of Mackinac. More than 80 percent of the island is a State Park, offering beautiful scenery of high cliffs, ravines, natural bridges, caves, and rock formations. What really sets Mackinac Island apart from other places to visit, however, is its unique historic ambience, punctuated by the lack of motorized vehicles anywhere on the island.

Coffee Experts.
Roasters.
Bakers.

Cultivating community, stellar coffee, and awesome doughnuts.

Strange Matter Coffee has been in the business of artisan coffee and baked goods for more than seven years.

In that time, it’s developed a reputation as an expert when it comes to the holistic coffee experience, from sourcing beans to brewing roasts to slow sipping. Strange Matter has encouraged its community to amplify the way we think about consuming coffee, taking a morning cup from a simple caffeine source to a valuable opportunity to self-reflect and meditate. For Strange Matter, it’s so, so much more than coffee.
