Studying abroad in Germany was not at all what I expected. For instance, we were able to shadow a classroom at the JFK Institute in Berlin and I was shocked when the professor started speaking in english. The classroom has a more relaxed feel to it and the students...

Last week, we were in Prague, Czech Republic. After a very long flight, we landed Thursday afternoon at the Prague airport and hit the ground running. We had a great week in Prague. The Old Town area was beautiful and it was so great seeing things such as the...

This is my final week in London and it is a very bittersweet week. I just came home from a trip to Rome where I spent it with my friend who lives there. I met her while I was over here studying, we had the same classes and became very close friends. She is the first...

I suppose I am a little late to the game regarding my blog posts. I am currently taking a 2 and a half week course abroad as a part of my accounting curriculum, and it has been a whirlwind to say the least! I arrived a day later than the rest of the crew, however,...

I am participating in the UA in Europe: International Financial Reporting, which in simpler terms is a class on how accounting works in Europe. I will be splitting my time between Prague, Czech Republic and Vienna, Austria. I have never been to Europe and I am...

From There to Here I am currently about halfway through my time here in Florence, Italy. It feels both as if I just arrived here yesterday and like I have been here for years. Before this experience I had never been to Europe. Now it feels just as familiar as my...

The Places Today I walked past Santa Maria del Fiore (Il Duomo) after my last final. It previously stood as the pinnacle of where I wanted to be. Now, it is a pin on the map of my life. I will miss walking past the remnants of the Renaissance and living within...

Studying abroad has always been something I aspired to do. I always told myself that no matter what I had to study abroad in college or else I would always regret it. However, it seemed like every opportunity that arose before this one just would not have worked out...

Studying abroad has always been on my radar ever since my older sister studied in London a few years ago. She had the time of her life traveling and meeting new people. I knew it was something I really wanted to do. Since I was technically on track to graduate a...

Studying abroad was always a dream of mine, but never one I thought would come true, or even tried to make come true until this year. Although I was full of doubt and stress during the decision process, I am extremely glad I decided to embark on this journey. I tried...

The past four months I have had the opportunity to travel all over Italy. Before coming here I had no clue how big and diverse the country was, you can go skiing in the Alps up north, exploring in a vineyard or a large city in the east, relaxing on the beach in the...

Studying abroad in London was an amazing experience to say the least. As cheesy as it is, I feel like I left a piece of myself there in London and I am already itching to return to my home away from home. All of my expectations were met to the highest degree and I...

My journey through Europe is complete. These past two weeks have been nothing less than amazing. I came into the trip with the mindset that I was going to learn a lot about the differences between GAAP and IFRS, but I never thought about how much I would learn about...
