Hi everyone! My name is Erika Coy and I am so exciting to be blogging for IES Abroad. Let me tell you about myself. My hobbies include going places I have never been and doing things I have never done, and I also enjoy crossword puzzles. I am outgoing and love sharing my experiences with everyone. Happy reading!
The name's Kiddest, and welcome to my travel blog. I live in Eugene, Oregon with my four sisters, which means I love hiking and drinking too much kombucha. I enjoy writing, drawing, and cooking. When I'm not embarrassing myself in public, you'll probably find me in bed laughing at memes. Sometimes I attempt to speak Spanish.
Hey, my name is Tyler! I am in the Paris - Beginning Language and Marketing program, studying Global Marketing.

Hello! My name is Daniel and I'm a student at Parsons for Fine Arts with a minor in Art History and a student at Eugene Lang for Global Studies with a minor in Japanese. This blog will study both my experience in Japan as a first generation American who has never left the US, as well as study Japanese art first hand, both historical and contemporary, high and low, and everything I can find inbetween!
Hallo! I’m Nina. I am a second-semester junior at American University in Washington D.C, where I’m majoring in International Relations and minoring in German. While California’s home for me, I also grew up in Frankfurt for 7 seven years of my life—making it all the more exciting to return to Germany this spring semester! You can find me reading, doodling & crafting, taking photos, expanding my food horizons, meeting new people, and seeking out all-things-adventurous… I especially appreciate finding cozy hole-in-the-wall locations in whatever city I'm in. I’m stoked for all the experiences and stories Berlin has in store. Stay tuned.

Just a college student exploring a big city for the first time with the purpose besides from the basic touristy things to get to know its quirks and beautiful inhabitants. Where this will lead I do not know but I cannot wait to find out.
