When returning to the Copenhagen Airport to travel home I could not help but reminisce about all of the fun I had. I made friends and memories that I won’t ever forget. I am so glad I was able to study abroad for this class, however, I was excited to return home...

With a fantastic month in Italy, 10 new friendships, and an expanded knowledge of Italian classical literature and art under my belt, I was as reluctant to return home as I was excited to see my family again. Even so, I was looking forward to some peaceful nights...

Heading to Worcester College in Oxford, England was beyond nerve wracking. I really had no clue what to expect. What would the room situation be like? Would the campus live up to the photos I had seen of it? Arriving on campus, my nerves were immediately calmed and I...

After my first couple of weeks in Porto, Portugal, I feel settled in and comfortable living here. A lot of that has to do with finally having a stable routine with my classes, meals, and free time. To recap, I am enrolled in the three-week-long European Innovation...

One of the perks of studying in Oxford is the proximity to amazing cities! I was lucky enough to travel each weekend of my study abroad program entirely by train. I was so impressed by the efficient railway system in Europe and wish that the States had something...

I have been in Belgium for almost three weeks now, and it’s almost time to go home! This time in the program is very bittersweet, as I’m tired (travelling is a lot more work than you think!) and missing home, but I’m also nowhere near ready to leave...
