Venice from the bell tower in St Mark’s square! Hey! I am Sarah, a rising Junior studying finance, real estate, and international business. I am currently in Rome, Italy for Summer 2, and have had the best start! Study abroad was something I was very nervous...

At this point in the trip, our time in Germany was coming to an end. However, I was not looking forward to what was to come. We had planned a 16 hour coach trip from Berlin to Florence, breaking another personal record of mine: the longest I’ve traveled in a day. I...

Ljubljana, Slovenia – The last picture I took in Europe 🙁 As I got my suitcase from baggage claim when I arrived home, there was only one thing on my mind: sleep. My journey had begun at 4 AM in Croatia, or about 9 PM local time in New Orleans, when the taxi...

Hi! My name is Louise Knight and I am an upcoming senior at UA. Similar to many people my age, I tried to go abroad the past two summers, with both possibilities being cancelled. So, as I was approaching my last summer as a student here, I knew this was my last chance...

My plane was delayed by about an hour on my 9 hour flight to Berlin. I was a bit anxious as it would be the longest plane ride I’ve taken. It would also be the first time I traveled alone other than for school. I was nervous to say the least, but my excitement...

As I was preparing to leave to come back to the US, I couldn’t help but feel sad. On one hand I was happy to have home cooked food instead of eating out and to sleep in a room other than a hotel room. Again my packing cubes came in handy again to get all of my clothes...

The first place I am traveling to is to Paris, France. Paris was awe inspiring. The most fun I had in the city was just walking around and walking into random stores and bakeries. Of course the Eiffel Tower, the Notre Dame, the Louvre, and the Muse d’Orsay were...

Parest, Montenegro Studying abroad in college is such a unique experience that it’s easy to get caught up in your own excitement. While abroad, I wanted to enjoy my time as much as possible, which included spending a lot of money on things that didn’t really improve...

I think that many people would give advice to Future students about what to pack, what to wear, and all of the logistics, but my advice is to make the absolute most of your trip. Fit in as much as you possibly can. I went to 7 different countries in 2 ½ weeks, which...

A short trip of only 27 days to hit everything in Europe seems nearly impossible, but my group and I fit in as much as possible. We stayed in Berlin and Florence, however, took day trips to Paris, Prague, Dresden, London, Venice, Rome, and Pisa. One of my favorite...

I have always wanted to travel abroad, specifically during my 4 years of college, but once Covid hit, which effected the end of my freshmen year as well as my entire sophomore year, I wasn’t sure I would have the opportunity to. Losing an entire summer of a chance to...
