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...

Over the past 3 weeks I had the opportunity to travel to four different countries and seven cities in Europe with UA Study Abroad. I don’t even know where to begin with everything I learned and took away from this amazing experience. I have dreamt of studying...

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...

Traveling to another country, whether you have done it before or not, can be extremely scary. Last summer I studied abroad in Italy by myself, which was the first time I have ever been out of the country. Currently I am in Lisbon, Portugal, and have been traveling on...

On this trip, my program spent a week in London and a week in Lisbon, Portugal. While both are cities, they could not be any more different. London is a large, bustling city that never sleeps. There is no shortage of things to do, with a café or pub on every corner, a...
