Well I’ve been home for almost a month now. I can pretty confidently say that this past fall that I spent studying abroad in London was the best time of my life. I’ve lived in or near cities my whole life, but none of them have been like London. They haven’t been near as big…

November Check-in
It’s been a while since my last general check-in blog where I wasn’t talking about something I did on vacation. November has been a much more back-to-business month after fall break. My classes are all going well, I’ve been on some very interesting walks to see things such as the Inns of Court, I saw…
Rome – The End of Fall Break
After Munich, I spent the next 3 or 4 days of my fall break in Rome, Italy. I would be meeting 4 of my friends from CAPA there. In fact, I didn’t have any particular desire to go to Rome and probably wouldn’t have gone during my time abroad if not for my friends. My…
Neuschwanstein Castle and Goodbye to Munich
Probably the highlight of my time in Germany during my fall break was my visit to Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria. The Castle is situated on a large hill overlooking the small village of Hohenschwangau in southwestern Bavaria. It was built by King Ludwig II in the 19th century to serve as his home. We started…
Train to Salzburg
I’m only a couple of days into my fall break, and have only spent two days in Munich, but I wanted to make the most of my location in the middle of Europe. Today, my friend Zack and I decided to take a train to the Austrian city of Salzburg. Salzburg is just over the…
First day in Munich
It’s my first day of fall break, and I’m spending it in Munich, Germany! I’ve wanted to go to Germany for the past 6 years or so, ever since I started taking German in highschool. While I don’t have time in my schedule to take Germany anymore, I wish that I could keep up with…
Dublin: Old Castle, Older Book
Unfortunately, because of how busy I am due to my classes and internship, I haven’t traveled as much as I would have liked while here. However, I did have the chance to go to Dublin, Ireland. While I only had one full day (Saturday) in the city, I really enjoyed it and would love to…
Getting Rained On
It hasn’t been too long since I last checked in, but I’ve done quite a bit since then. My biggest reason for writing tonight is to share a very unique experience I had this past Wednesday night. As part of my courses here, I’m taking a Shakespeare class. How could I not? As part of…
3 Weeks Later
It’s been a while since my last blog post, but I’ve been putting that time to good use. I’ve been exploring my neighborhood and the rest of the city, getting used to my classes, and just getting acclimated to my surroundings. First, I’ll say a little bit about Shepherd’s Bush, the neighborhood that I am…
