Light packing has never been a word in my dictionary. It usually hasn’t been that big of a deal and it’s always been relatively manageable. If I could go back in time and do one thing differently for my trip, I would tell myself to listen to the emails and...

Overall, this trip has been one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. I feel like I have grown so much as an individual and have had so many experiences that I wouldn’t have had if I didn’t push myself out of my comfort zone. The friendships I have formed and...

On the study abroad trip I went on, our first stop was in Dubrovnik, Croatia. Although it was a city that I had never thought about visiting prior to hearing we were going on the trip, I could not be more grateful. I have never been somewhere like it and I don’t think...

Something I do not think people talk about enough are the flights to and from your study abroad destinations. These flights can be as crazy as 15 hours, but most of them are probably in the 7 to 9 hour range. A little better, but still a long time to be sitting down...

I decided to spend a semester in Barcelona, Spain at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. During my time abroad I fell in love with Barcelona but once I leave, I will definitely miss the food the most including tapas. A tapa is an appetizer in Spanish cuisine but...

As I am leaving Fiji, I have reflected on a few of the things I have learned in Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji. I have learned the world is a lot bigger than I ever thought, and I can learn almost anything through immersing myself in the culture. I have learned a...

When I first arrived in London, I was immediately occupied listening to the locals talk. There’s nothing like a good British accent, and I absolutely enjoyed listening to those around me. I was so exhausted from traveling when I landed, but I stuck it out so...
