Leadership Skills in Korea
Last Saturday, we took a day trip to the demilitarized zone, which was a very unique experience. At 6:15 AM, we got picked up by a bus and headed straight toward the DMZ. We started by walking across the Freedom Bridge in Paju, where the tour guide explained how the bridge was used by prisoners…
Solo Travels & Skills
This weekend I took a solo trip down to Busan and explored the city on my own. Unfortunately I got food poisoning on the first night from a food cart, which was a very rough start. Before the food poisoning effects hit, I was able to get a good amount of exploring in. On Saturday…

Puerto Rico Final Blog
It’s hard to believe that the semester is already coming to an end. It still feels like yesterday that my group was walking around the streets of Old San Juan, immersed in the culture and enjoying everything that Puerto Rico had to offer. Before transferring into the business school and applying to the GSL program,…
