As I have returned from Zambia, Africa I am happy to be home but already miss the beauty of the scenery. I am so grateful to be able to travel to a country so far away and learn from the people there. Seeing how the local community rally around each other and support...

5: I saw five plays while in England. A Midsummer’s Night Dream, As You Like It, Romeo and Juliet, The Burnt City, and Six the Musical. Whether just for fun or for class, I had the best time experiencing theater in so many different ways. A Midsummer’s Night Dream was...

Oxford has one of the biggest library systems in the world: the Bodleian Library. After our first day of classes, we went to the Bodleian to get our library cards, go on a small tour, and take an oath before we are allowed to use the library for our studies. The...

I want to start this off by saying how much of a life-changing experience Colombia was for me, and all the things I will be able to take back with me. I have been home now for about a little over 2 weeks and I do miss Colombia, but I am really happy to be surrounded...

An incredible discovery of mine on our research trip was that Belizeans are some of the kindest people to come across. I met and spent an extended amount of time with different host families and guides in the ecotourism industry. At our first location, we were housed...

As I reflect on my time in France, my heart aches out of gratitude, joy, and reminiscence. Those two short weeks held some of the happiest and eye-opening experiences of my life where I learned more about myself, my habits, and my country. Partaking in French...

Tuesday, July 11th, Flåm, Norway. I slept in that day then went on a hike with Nato (Professor Nathan Parker), Kyle, Donovan, Foster, and Chris. The Hike was over 18,000 steps. Most of it was on a bike path, then it became an incline zig-zag. At the last of the...

On our last day in Florence, several of us made the trek up to the outlook to take in Italy’s beauty one last time. We talked and laughed and had a great time. We would need to get up early the night morning to board our flights, but that didn’t matter to us. We...
