My favorite time during the program was our trip to Candelario. I had been abroad before in Oviedo, Asturias and had been missing the small town feeling. Although, Oviedo is bigger than this town, it was nice to have a weekend where the sounds of people didn’t overcloud my mind. Every person and thing in Candelario…
A Time Well Spent
It’s funny when you plan on doing something that you know will change you, but there’s no way of knowing how. As an INB requirement, I needed an experience abroad. I approached this program as such and didn’t expect much to change. Now, I feel quite the opposite. At the same time, I sure don’t…
Internship in IFEMA
From the blank stares and laughable misunderstandings to the realization at 5 AM that you have work in a few hours, interning in IFEMA was by far the highlight of my trip. The people I met will be life-long friends or as I like to call them “family”, and the opportunity of working in another…
Weekend In Paris!
This past weekend I visited Paris, France, which was one of the cities I wanted to visit most during my time in Europe since I had never been there before. Paris in a traveller’s perspective is a very romantic city and I absolutely loved everything about it, other than all the tourists and street sellers trying…
If you’re not first you’re last.
My last three weeks in Spain were three of the best weeks of my life. Although the fourth week I became sick while we were in Candelario I still had a great time. The fifth week I stayed in Madrid for my last weekend in order to retain all the memories i have had during…

I was lucky enough to have great professors while abroad in Spain. My professors incorporated different methods of teaching in order to help my classmates and I fully grasp Spanish Culture. In the photo above, my classmates and I are pictured at La Pomarada, the restaurant where the whole Rollins group attends lunch once or…
Madrid Full Circle
This picture is of me taking the Tour of the Real Madrid futbol stadium, Santiago Bernabeau. During this tour I was able to see the locker rooms, step on one of the worlds most famous fields, as well as walk through the trophy room. These were all really exciting to see, but the best part…
Getting a VISA to Germany – Perks of being a Nepali Student in the US
Hello there! I am Shree, Shree Raj Shrestha. My first name is Shree Raj, but people call me Shree. As you might have guessed from my name, that I am not from the United States. I am from Nepal – a beautiful country rich in beautiful places and wonderful people. However, all this beauty comes at a price…
Segovia Farm
These final three weeks in Spain were absolutely incredible. I had so much fun exploring Spain beyond Madrid. One of the best experiences I had was my visit to a horse farm near Segovia. The farm was home to one-thousand horses, and bred an average of two-hundred fifty horses a year. In Addition to horses…
