I know I’m super late with this goodbye post. The truth is I didn’t want to face the truth that my time in Buenos Aires is over š It’s been such as incredible experience and I think it’s time to reflect on all the great experiences and some of the challenges I faced. Also time…
Scotland
Over the study break I had the opportunity to visit Edinburgh. I travelled by myself and felt quite lonely. It was exciting to have such a wonderful adventure but I was sad that I had no one to share the experience with. I stayed with a Polish couple I found on AirBnB. They were wonderful…
The Importance of Being Completely Overwhelmed
England has been a time. Being abroad is truly an awesome, amazing experience, but school-wise, everything feels a so different from what I’m used to. Most of my days are spent waking up late, grabbing coffee and sometimes a sandwich as I brace the cold on the way to an afternoon class, and then alternating…
November, the election, and home
By far, the biggest event of these two weeks was the US presidential election. As a Hillary supporter the election results utterly shocked me and hovered over me like a cloud for many days after November 8th. However, I didnāt let my disappointment ruin the week after the election and the week before I gave…
October Flew By!
This is yet another late blog post, which just goes to show how busy and captivating life can be in London. The last two weeks of October Iāve become much more familiar with London as a city and Queen Mary as a school. With regards to London, I feel that no matter how much time…
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. My favorite part about this trip was the Cliffs of Moher, the views were just breathtaking. We probably took about 300 pictures between the two of…
Venice, Italy (fall break)
During my fall break I also went to Venice, Italy with my roommates, my friend Corey, and his friend Dianne! Before going to Venice I had heard it was very dirty, and there wasn’t much to see. I had mixed feelings about booking the trip to Venice because of all of the hate is was…
Travel Spontaneously
its now been about two weeks since Iāve been back from fall break and it was probably the best time of my life. I went to Italy with two of my roommates and we ended up backpacking around the coast of Italy. We hit Naples, Capri, Sorrento, the Amalfi Coast and Venice. We would start…
November Rush
Moin! Today I finally understood what people warned me about time literally escaping from your fingertips while studying abroad. Where did the last three weeks go? I am usually on top of writing my blogs but since November began my schedule swept me off my feet. From the first week of this month, I took…
