Another one of my favorite things about Barcelona is that it is a big city. I was not expecting to like the city as much as I do but it has turned out to be one of the best parts. I love that Barcelona is alive and that there is always something to do. Constantly...

I noticed almost immediately (and by immediately, I mean before the plane even took off from Charlotte) how little consideration I had given to learning Italian prior to my trip. After slinging my stuff through the narrow aisle and locating my way-in-the-back window...

I am currently half way through my two week study abroad program in Croatia but I’ve been out in Europe for about three weeks now. It’s been a great experience so far but there have been some aspects that I have might’ve overlooked coming into the...

To pack… or not to pack? There is only so much you can pack for a 6 week trip to another country. It is important to pack smart and strategic. Over the course of my journey in France, I have noticed the items I have gotten the most use out of and the items I...

I have hoped to study abroad in Spain since my freshman year, as many Spanish minors dream of, and I feel and I am so thankful that I am able to before my graduation in August. Madrid has been my home for about a week now, and I could never have predicted all that I...

The Main Square of Zagreb. Much of the city was like this. Dobar dan! In the latter half of the UA in Croatia trip, I find myself reflecting on our adventures so far. We have had some wonderful experiences, from kayaking around the walls of Dubrovnik or watching the...

It’s already been a little over 4 weeks since I arrived in France, and I can’t believe my program is almost over and I will be on a plane home by the end of the week. The last couple of weeks have been filled with good food and beautiful sights, especially...

In the first few weeks that I have spent studying abroad, I have read what feels like every blog post and article available on the internet about this topic. In a desperate attempt to find a quick fix for the wide range of emotions that hit me so unexpectedly, I found...

The day is finally here that I’m leaving and I still can’t believe it! I have been planning for this trip for about a year now so to see it finally happening is very surreal. I am going on a faculty-led trip in Greece for 3 weeks where we will start in Athens and...

I’m finally back home from my semester abroad and have had some time to reflect upon the memories I made in Europe. Honestly, coming home felt a lot like coming out of a dream, going back to the familiar spaces in my hometown from a place where it seemed as...

My classes) at the Institut de Touraine are more like a combination of elementary/high school and college than I thought they would be, mostly because I have the same classroom and professor all day. Not every day is the same length, and there are a lot of discussions...

It has been almost a week since I arrived in Croatia and the things we have learned and experienced thus far have been immaculate. There are many things that I have learned not only in regards to the economy, as my program is studing Intermediate Macroeconomics,...
