Introduction to Weekend Traveling
Normal life while studying abroad is much more fast paced than normal life while I’m at school in the United States. After my first week of classes, me and 4 other girls took a train to Belfast, Northern Ireland for the weekend. We traveled there by train, making it an easy journey, but I still got to see a country for the first time, which is always amazing. For anyone studying in Ireland, I would definitely recommend going to Northern Ireland (or vice versa) because of how cheap and mindless getting there was; round trip train tickets were just 30 euros.

8 Days in Tassie
There are many things I miss about studying in Europe. Besides the bread, what I truly miss is the potential and convenience of travel. While it was relatively easy to get away every weekend in Europe, I have not found that to be the case for Australia. Not only does the academic schedule reveal little about potential travel dates, but places in Australia are, simply put, FREAKING FAR AND EXPENSIVE!!!
Adjusting and Exploring: First Weeks in Granada
Being in a new country and culture is definitely a big change, and the last few weeks have been intense. Not necessarily in a bad way, but it’s been a lot. When I reflect on my experience since arriving in Granada, two words come to mind: adjusting and exploring.
