Sports in Spanish Culture
The highlight of my study abroad trip was getting to actually experience in person games in Spain and comparing the atmosphere to that of the US sporting events. People there were much more invested in their respective sport team rather than attending games for the entertainment aspect.

My Weekend In Verona
A class trip to Verona ended up being one of the highlights of my study abroad experience. The food, wine, and gelato were some highlights, but the main highlight was my last day when me and some classmates bought a bouquet of flowers to pass around to Verona locals.

My plan was to go abroad on Semester at Sea the spring of my Junior year and then the fall of my Senior year but unfortunately both programs were called off due to COVID. I then registered for the Netherlands: Sex, Gender, and Identity course and had that trip also called off due to COVID about five days before the departure date. I unfortunately was not able to go abroad in my college career, but I hope to travel sometime soon.

I traveled abroad to Sorrento, Italy. While going abroad and spending time with friends is a lot of fun, I found that taking a trip to London by myself was very beneficial. In this story, I share with you some of the benefits I found of taking an individual trip and why it is different than traveling with friends. I hope you enjoy it.

“My first LA trip was not that perfect as it is in the movies”
This story is about a trip I went on during the Winter Break with my two Japanese friends.
We went to Los Angeles for 6 days, and how we encountered a dangerous situation that we didn’t even imagine.
We strayed into a very dangerous place with a lot of homeless people and gangs.
Luckily we survived, but I wanted to tell everyone that how American movies and dramas tell/show us is not everything.
We tend to see the “good” aspects of other countries in dramas, movies, and on social media, so we should have done more research about the place we visited for the first time.
I hope you and other listeners have an interest in this story.
