Well, here it is: the last photo I took in Madrid, Spain before flying back to the States. I took this picture sitting at my gate, waiting to board a plane to Charlotte. Ahead of me waited an 8-hour flight back to the U.S., a trip through customs, a bit of a layover,...

¡Hola otra vez! I can hardly believe I’m saying it, but after a few wonderful weeks here in Spain, I’ll be flying back to the states in just three days. In some ways the trip has flown by, and in other ways it feels like I’ve been here forever....

It’s hard to believe but I am on the way home from my time abroad. It doesn’t feel real that it’s already over. I had the best time ever, I am so happy I got to have that experience. I had so much fun traveling and seeing new places. Along the way I...

I am heading off to the airport for my faculty led study abroad trip in Croatia and Italy. I am so excited but also a little bit nervous. I have never been to Europe before. I have definitely overpacked but I somehow feel like I am forgetting something. My group is 10...

Before I even embarked on my study abroad trip, I was the most excited for us to get to Italy. This destination was two weeks into our trip, but I was so excited to get there. Most of this excitement stemmed from the fact that I love pasta. I could live off of pasta....

After being back home for a week now, I have had a chance to truly reflect and think back on my trip abroad. This program has given me an opportunity that I never really expected to have. Throughout this trip, I visited 5 different countries, experienced different...

Here is a picture of our entire group with Professor Lee in front of the University of Dubrovnik! Our group was just 10 students and I was a little nervous at first to see if everyone would get along. Almost immediately the group became close friends. We explored the...

As I learned before I went on my study abroad trip to Europe, a part of culture shock are feelings of frustration at the differences from our society to that of the one you have just entered. When I first got to Croatia, I did not feel very intense culture shock, but...

If you’re like me, patience is not a strength you possess. Rushing to get everything done as fast as possible, is simply the norm of my day to day. At home my schedule consists of waking up, crank out all my errands of the day, work, school, free time, sleep,...

Here is a picture of me getting dropped off in the airport! Honestly, this trip came faster than I was expecting and suddenly I was at the airport about to make a long journey all the way to Europe! I have flown plenty of times and a few of those times have been on my...

As I finish my first full week home after returning from my trip, I spend a lot of time reflecting on the special moments I experienced while abroad. I got to dine at authentic restaurants in France, cruise the coastline in Greece, segway toured a beautiful city in...

Some of my most fond memories of being in Athens, Greece is exploring the city with all my new friends. Every time we would leave our hotel, we would stumble into the neatest restaurants or shops. We got to see different neighborhoods and meet different people through...

My program ended May 28th and looking back at my time in Europe it seemed to go by so quickly, yet still feel like I was gone for years. Although the program was only 15 days long it is crazy how many special bonds and friendships you can create. Our farewell dinner...
