It has been a wild journey from when IES accepted me to the program last spring to jumping on that flight over here. I left school in Seattle, left my home in Los Angeles, and headed to Freiburg, Germany (via several other stops) for the IES European Union Program. This video shows you what I packed and how I got geared up to study abroad!

<p>Hello! I&#39;m Kimberly Webber, an International Business Leadership major at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, WA, off roaming around Freiburg and surrounding areas for the semester! My biggest values are happiness and genuine relationships so I can usually be found in a campus cafe, socializing while pretending to do homework; at work, socializing; or hanging out in my sorority house, socializing! In my off-hours I&#39;m a portrait photographer where my greatest accomplishments include catching my subjects off-guard and eliciting a genuine smile or laugh. I look forward to documenting my experiences abroad and hope you enjoy all the photos and videos you see here!</p>
