Living In Sydney
After living in Sydney for a few months I find myself qualified to make some recommendations to prospective visitors. First thing to note about Sydney, it is absolutely beautiful in the Summer.

London – April (2)
My experience in London has unfortunately come to an end! It was the best four months of my life that I’m so fortunate to experience. I wouldn’t change anything about it and I’m so happy I chose London as my city to study. I think the lack of a language barrier made a huge difference…

This past semester in Florence has been quite the learning experience, and without a doubt has changed me greatly. After spending so much time away from home in a foreign country, I have certainly gained a bit of self-confidence as well as a sense of independence. There were many times throughout this most recent semester…
