Hamburg, September 5th, 2015 After I got settled in at Jacobs, it was due time that I did some travelling and learn more about Germany’s culture and history. A really convenient thing about the Jacobs program is that you get a semester ticket that allows one to travel across the Lower Saxony region for free….
London Baby!
Fall is here and it is gorgeous. As a native Floridian, I am excited to experience a “proper” Fall. Just like September, I know October is going to fly by. This past week has been super busy, but eventful! Last Saturday, I student rushed for tickets to see Jane Eyre at the National Theatre. It…
#SightseeingSaturday
Saturday, October 10th CAPA took us on a day trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon and Kenilworth Castle. I always love day trips, so I knew this was a must!

Free Museums are a Dangerous Thing
I think I’ve repaid the amount of my plane ticket from the US in free museum visits alone. I don’t know who decided that museums in London should be free, but they deserve their own bank holiday. And a parade. If you only have one day in London, spend it reliving the Great War. America,…
Work Hard, Play Hard
I am so glad that I have been keeping track of what I am doing everyday. Honestly, some days are so busy and exciting that I forget to update the note in my phone. It is fun to recall all of my adventures a few days after. And reflecting on my experiences through this blog…
Getting Into the Flow of Things
It’s official, I’ve been in London for over a month, and to say time has flown by is the understatement of the year. Days and weeks pass by seamlessly as I juggle between classes, work, travelling, and exploring London. Getting into a routine has undoubtedly helped me adapt to my new life in one of…
