It’s been about a week now since I’ve flown home to the States and I’m back in my room, staring at the all too familiar pink striped carpet and laying in the same bed I was laying in right before I left. I would say that everything is the same, but something has changed; and…

During my time here in London, I have been fortunate enough to travel around to different countries! Everywhere in Europe is easily accessible and fairly cheap to travel to through smaller airlines. About two weeks ago, I was able to travel to Paris to celebrate my birthday with my family! My mom used to live…

These past 7 weeks have just flown by. I can not believe I only have 6 more weeks here! I came into this knowing it would be an experience full of travel and self-discovery, but I didn’t realize how attached I would become to the friends I’ve made here!

Starting on the first day, when I tasted the tortilla de patatas, to last night, where I enjoyed Argentinian herb sirloin, each flavor has gotten better and better. My experience with food here has been quite different…

This past weekend, a couple of friends and I took a trip to Granada. A few people had mentioned how beautiful it was, but it completely exceeded my already high expectations! Since the town was the last in Spain to be conquered by the Spaniards, it still displays Arabian vibes. The streets were picturesque rather than modern, with…
