It’s unreal to think that I will be studying abroad in London, as well as taking part in an internship program. I always knew I wanted to study abroad while in college, so getting the chance to do so is truly a blessing.
Before receiving the pre-departure email I was extremely anxious because I didn’t know where I was living, whom I was living with, what internship I had, or what classes I was placed in. When the email finally arrived it was a huge relief! I found out I’m rooming with two of my best friends in a pretty cool flat, along with three other girls from the University of Minnesota! Living with five girls should be interesting, but without a doubt a memorable experience. I’m also thrilled to start my internship at Vita Fitness, which is a Pilates studio, as a Marketer! I believe having this internship while abroad will open up great opportunities in the future. Also, the classes I’m in count towards my major, so I’m happy with my placement!
In just a week, I will be boarding a plane to embark on an experience of a lifetime! In just a week, I will be in an unfamiliar environment for over 3 months! I’m excited, anxious, but nonetheless, ready for London!!!
