Madrid has so many things to do, it’s hard to really know what there is to do in Madrid and what is worth doing. In my time here in Madrid, I have compiled a list of museums, parks, markets, stores, and more that I have enjoyed! The museums: The Prado Museum....

My biggest recommendations to make your study abroad experience better Pack really light. I’m not saying don’t go without clothing, but be very prudent about what you pack. I over-packed a few t-shirts that I thought I would wear so much more and I can...

What’s taken me by surprise as I’ve been back home I expected there to be a lot of cultural nuances that took getting used to as I studied abroad in France. What I didn’t expect, though, was to be shocked anew as I re-entered the U.S. There are...

One of the last adventures I took during my time at Oxford was a short weekend trip to Edinburgh with two really cool people (shoutout Ava and Sam). The train ride there was beautiful and I honestly forgot that we were on a train for 6 hours because of the rolling...

Looking back on my time in Spain, I’m so grateful to have gotten this opportunity! I got to experience so many different cities in Spain. Despite this, I could spend another summer in Spain and there would still be new cities to explore! I guess this gives me a good...

Growing up I think I wanted to study abroad before I even decided I wanted to go to school. I’ve loved traveling ever since I went to Europe with my grandparents in 2013. While it was such a fun and relaxing experience it was also very educational, and I was so...

As I have returned from Zambia, Africa I am happy to be home but already miss the beauty of the scenery. I am so grateful to be able to travel to a country so far away and learn from the people there. Seeing how the local community rally around each other and support...

I want to start this off by saying how much of a life-changing experience Colombia was for me, and all the things I will be able to take back with me. I have been home now for about a little over 2 weeks and I do miss Colombia, but I am really happy to be surrounded...

An incredible discovery of mine on our research trip was that Belizeans are some of the kindest people to come across. I met and spent an extended amount of time with different host families and guides in the ecotourism industry. At our first location, we were housed...
