Coming to an end…
These past few months abroad have been filled with the most memorable experiences… I have met so many people and seen so many unique places. When I first took off from Boston airport, I had mixed feelings. I was excited, but nervous. Happy to get away, but also sad to be gone for so long. […]

Découvrir Newport
Newport. Avant de venir ici, je n’en avais jamais entendu parlé, j’avais seulement vu quelques images, plutôt sympathiques, sur internet. C’est seulement une fois sur place que j’ai réalisé à quel point c’était beau. C’est une petite ville sur une île, où la vie est paisible et les paysages apaisants. Le campus de Salve Regina […]

The Italian Way of Life

Having blonde hair and light features is not exactly “common” for Italians, so I knew I would stick out like a sore thumb. Upon my arrival, I was shocked to see how many Italians automatically greeted […]
All the Way Back Home
After returning home from studying abroad in Spain for the past four months, I first had a feeling of relief. The realization that I was back in a familiar place was comforting because I was no longer living on my own all the way in Europe. However, as the days of summer began happening, I […]
The Ireland One
As I wrote in my last post, I was so sad to leave the city that I had called my home. But despite all of my attempts, I left my flat, tears in my eyes, and headed to the airport. The tears didn’t stop until I looked out my window and saw my new home […]
