Alum Isaac Rysdahl (IES Abroad Buenos Aires, Fall 2012 | St. Olaf College) shares how he was inspired by the human connection he experienced over food and drink while studying abroad in Argentina.
I had the privilege of visiting Dublin with my family this fall. Like many folks from Chicago, where there’s a large population of people with Irish heritage, we went with the intention of ‘discovering our roots’ (which my dad was able to do).
We’re not going to lie; we were pretty excited to see that an IES Abroad alumna is the royal family’s bride-to-be. That’s right, the Meghan Markle studied abroad with us in Madrid in 2002 while she was a student at Northwestern University.
November is a time of giving thanks, and we are very thankful for all of these study abroad photos tagged with #IESabroad or @iesabroad on Instagram this month.
