Trusting the Fog-In More Ways Than One
This week was the first full week of working a job five days a week from 10-6pm. I have learned a number of things while commuting and working alongside coworkers. My commute is about an hour in the morning so I leave my apartment/campus at 9. Aside from work, a fun event that we had…
Week 4: Fruit Fruit and more Fruit
As I finish my fourth week in Berlin, it is hard to believe how quickly my time abroad has been moving. This week was another busy one both professionally and personally.

Hej from Stockholm! An (Almost) Pre-Departure Introduction
About me I like being thrown into new places, and that is probably the fastest way to describe me. Back home I am a junior studying economics, where most of my coursework has leaned toward finance, statistics, and applied data work.

Parisians can’t place where I’m from
As much as I experience uncertainty around French culture and tasks at my internship, I also have been confusing many French speakers on where my accent is from. I know that I do not have a very strong American accent when I speak French, nor do I attempt to speak in a “Parisian accent” (if…
