5 weeks left…
Last night I sat around a table with two other girls from Rollins. We had just finished dinner at our favorite Taco place in Brixton, a district in London. We were discussing something that really made me step back and say “wow”. I think it is important enough to write about. We have all changed….
Ireland
I recently just got back from a trip to Ireland with one of my childhood best friends who is also studying abroad this semester with her school in Italy.

I was so excited to explore Paris, the city I had so long dreamed about, that I’ve seen romanticized in books, movies, and TV. The highlight of the weekend was definitely going up the Eiffel Tower. I was surprised by how…
