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...

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,...

I have officially been abroad for a week! We have done so many fun and exciting things during the week I have been here, in London. Even with being so busy and doing so many exciting things, the feeling of missing home and familiarity are inevitable. Three days ago,...

Hola a todos from Barranquilla, Colombia! Traveling to Colombia has been a dream of mine for five years now. In May, that dream became a reality! I’m currently in Barranquilla taking Spanish classes for my minor. We are three weeks in, and we have three weeks...

When I first organized my study abroad trip to London I felt only one emotion, excitement. However, as time slowly inched towards my departure date I began to have feelings of anxiety and nervousness as I was about to enter an entirely new world. These feelings were...

Before leaving for France, I heard more rumors and stereotypes about the French than I could count, the majority of which pertained to their customer service industry. While it is very different from that of The U.S., reality does not reflect what I was led to expect,...

Since I knew my plan was to go to college, the one thing I had completely been sure that I was going to do was study abroad. Little 9th grade me in high school would dream about roaming the streets of Rome or walking across the Champs Elysée with a baguette in hand or...

Because I had never been abroad, I decided to pick a program that went to London. Though I wanted to get out of my comfort zone, I figured merely jumping the pond would limit the culture shock yet still be different enough that I would be able to expand my mind and...
