Going into studying abroad, it was very important for me to be able to experience as many new cities as possible. My program has built in day trips for every weekend except for two. This has made it especially easy (and so much cheaper) for me to see several Spanish...

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...

Going abroad is undoubtedly a stressful experience no matter how many times you have left the country before. Whether it’s your first time or tenth time, there is always an element of anxiety as you are going to acclimate to a new culture. As redundant as it may...

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...

The past three weeks have been so much more than I could ask for and I am so grateful that I got to do this program. As my first time out of the country, I went into it not knowing at all what to expect. I knew that it would be a great learning experience and that I...

Hi! In case you haven’t read my previous blog, I participated in the European Innovation Academy in Porto, Portugal this summer. This program is one of the many hands-on study abroad experiences that UA has to offer. Rather than sitting and learning abroad in a...

Studying abroad has been such an eye-opening experience. Traveling and going to foreign places has been so fun, but also so confusing. The phenomenon of culture shock is real. Seeing all the things that are different is very insightful, but is also a constant reminder...

For my third and final blog post I wanna talk about all the fun places I traveled to on the weekends and everything I learned while studying abroad. The first weekend trip I went on was to Venice with API. Venice was beautiful and I am so lucky I got to visit before...

Hello from the South Island of New Zealand! So far, the weather here has been even colder than the North Island (where we spent our first week), so I thought I would go over some of the most used items I brought, and some things I probably could have left at home....

For my second blog post I’m discussing what it’s like to live and study in Florence and travel to other popular destinations in Italy. At first, it was a little bit of a culture shock, but there are so many amazing things about Italy. The people are very kind, the...

My first week in Porto is coming to a close and it has been a long week full of bumpy flights, airport sprints, uphill walks, last minute bus rides, and LOTS of Ubers. My favorite thing about Porto so far, besides the breathtaking views, has been the food! Pastries...
