Future-Focused Friday: Things That Reenergized Us This Week 🙌

This week we’ve been completely reenergized about study abroad by diving into some of the best of the best of the (last one, promise) best of our study abroad goodness.

What’s study abroad goodness, you ask? Well, it’s some of our best content that has made us laugh, cry, reflect, and, you guessed it, reenergize!

Whether it's inspiring student blog posts about being comfortable with who you are while abroad, watching some hidden gem videos that reveal the true beauty of the people and the landscapes of our world, casually browsing some of our favorite study abroad photos, or being reminded by our 2020 Correspondent of the Year that you can make the most of anything if you put your mind to it, it's everything we need right now to get our groove back 🕺.

Future-Focused Friday: Things That Helped Us Go with the Flow This Week 🌊

With everything going on in the world, this week we’re honing in on "going with the flow"—a skillset IES Abroad students learn many different ways during their time abroad, and a way of moving through the world that we could all put to good use right now. Feeling (or getting) lost doesn’t have to be a bad thing!

Future-Focused Friday: Things That Helped Us Crack the Cultural Code This Week 🕵️

This week we’ve been thinking about how emojis mean different things in different cultures, which has us thinking, studying abroad in a new culture has so many layers outside of simply learning the language: new symbols, gestures, and expressions to understand.
