One of my classes, EN422, focuses on the Real Pirates of the Caribbean. In our class, one of our projects is to travel to Bristol, finding six key locations from back in the day. This place really smells like the sea. When my group of four others and I traveled here,...

I feel that I have to start by saying that this is inevitably going to be one of the best experiences of my life. I’m over halfway through my trip now and It’s been everything I imagined and so much more. When I first arrived in Belize I was hit by heat,...

This summer, I went on two faculty-led study abroad trips: UA in Guatemala: Development and Human Rights and UA in Spain: Language and Culture. Before studying abroad, I had very limited travel experience. I had never traveled abroad before, and I had never flown...

As if Worcester College doesn’t feel enough like Hogwarts, we have about two fancy dinners during this shebang. If I had been a good little kid and read my HP, I would’ve known what those nice dinners in the Hogwarts dining hall were called. Anyways, this...

It has been about a week since I returned from studying abroad and I am already missing Florence so much! I was worried about adjusting back to normal life when I returned home but it hasn’t been bad at all so far. I have been reminiscing on my trip recently as I have...

One thing I love about Italy is how easy it is to travel within the country. You can easily buy tickets for a train and travel wherever you want to go! Figuring out the train system was a little intimidating at first, but after you use it a couple of times it is very...

There were many fantastic experiences throughout our trip to Colombia. Near the end of the six weeks, we visited the city of Medellin. While there were plenty of fun excursions throughout the study abroad, I’d say Medellin was the most unique city we visited. The UA...

My view from my window seat on the plane to London. If you would have told me a year ago that today, I would be sitting in the airport waiting to board my first international flight to Heathrow Airport in London, I never would have believed you. Ever since I took...

Arriving in England was unlike anything I have ever experienced in my life. As someone who had never before ventured out of the United States, going to another country has been incredibly eye-opening, especially since England is a country that is rich in culture and...

Looking out the window over Spain as the plane was landing was so surreal. I had dreamt about this moment for 3 years. The first thing I noticed was that there were a lot more trees and open spaces than I was expecting. Arriving at the area around the residence, there...

The answer is yes! Studying abroad is a really thrilling experience and it can get very overwhelming at certain times. I am currently doing two sessions of UA in Spain. Each session consist of two classes that are 3 credits each so in total I am taking 12 credits. My...

I am on my way to Belgium for the 2022 UA in Belgium: Political Science trip! This is the first summer of faculty led programs since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, so travel looks a little different than in years past. Along with carrying my passport and ID,...

One of my favorite parts about studying abroad is being able to travel to other places easily. I have traveled almost every weekend since studying in Barcelona. Since I also do an internship here, I have to be back for work on Monday morning which makes my weekends...

I have been anticipating my study abroad trip for quite a while now and the day has finally come for me to pack and prepare to fly overseas. Not only is this going to be my first time abroad, but also my first time traveling alone. These factors have caused me to have...
