Study Abroad

Unfortunately if you came looking for some exotic form of Australian wildlife based on the title, you’ll be a tad bit disappointed. But that doesn’t mean the Red Frogs I’m talking about aren’t amazing. Red Frogs is a volunteer church organization located in Australia. And i know what you’re thinking, church organizations and amazing generally […]

“The Aussie Road is now completely flooded…and getting deeper” These were the words that welcomed me to Australia via the the radio taking me from the airport to the Sunshine Coast. After some twenty hours in the air and an additional 5 or so spent in airports, it wasn’t exactly the type of news i […]

Hey guys, so a part of my Study abroad program requires me to keep a blog while i’m overseas. If you’re reading this now, than thank you, but at the same time i don’t want anyone to feel obligated to keep up with it. My first post is one that was given to me by […]

After typing on the computers here, there have been a few instances where I momentarily forgot which key was what on my laptop! […]

I have been here over a month! I cannot believe it! It’s also difficult to comprehend the amount of places in, around, and outside of Seville that I have seen. I did not know that one could experience such wonders in such a short amount of time. I cannot imagine how much more awaits me […]
