As the title mentions, I cannot believe I am halfway through with my time in Sweden! I’m doing my best to live in the moment, but I’m happy to say that I am nowhere near ready to leave yet. That being said, Summer in Stockholm has a way of throwing unexpected environments your way. As…
Budapest & Big Lessons
Hello again, everyone! This week has been extra exciting because I just got back from spending the weekend in Budapest. It is such a beautiful city, and I can honestly say it lived up to all the hype. The architecture was absolutely stunning, from the grand Parliament building to the beautiful streets along the Danube….
Skills from Outside of the Box
Hola todos! Five weeks into this internship, and I have officially hit the point where I stopped counting the days and started actually noticing how much I have changed since I got here. This week’s prompt asks me to reflect on the skills I am building, both the soft kind and the hard kind, and…
