After the week of orientation and having a set plan from an external source fade away, suddenly everything got more real. The train system wasn’t confusing, I started using Google Maps less to get to and from my apartment, and the city just started to make sense. A similar thing can be said for my…

Finding My Rhythm
One of the biggest lessons I have learned during my internship so far is the importance of managing my time effectively. Moving to Prague and starting an internship at the same time has been an exciting experience, but it has also required me to be intentional about how I structure my days. Between my responsibilities…
A Productive Week to an Impulsive Weekend
Wow, week two was absolutely amazing. The beginning of the week threw me in at the deep end in the best possible way — not with time management, but rather survival mode.

One of my favorite parts of the experience has been simply exploring Prague…

My first week in Prague has passed in a blur of trams, translation apps, and trying to look like I know where I am going. The city has already begun reshaping how I think about work, communication, and the small habits I never questioned at home. My first impression was how quiet everything is. Coming…
Fresh Shoes, Old Streets, New Friends
In this first week abroad, I have experienced more than I could have anticipated. Prague has been nothing short of an incredible experience. The city manages to feel ancient lined with old churches and cobblestone streets, yet alive with intriguing restaurants, shops, and residents at every corner. Between exploring the winding streets of Old Town,…
