After spending a week in Paris, it became clear to me that the city is absolutely full of hidden gems. While the typical tourist activities of going to see the Eiffel Tower sparkle at night and visiting the Louvre created valuable memories for me, I found multiple...

Here’s to the beginning of something new and I think the hardest part of this process was picking which program I wanted and which country I wanted to study in. The rest of the hard decisions were left up to API, the affiliate program I chose. With API making...
