My name is Emma Garber and I am a fashion loving creative Public Relations student. I’ve had a love for photography ever since I can remember.

Hi, I'm Emily! I'm studying abroad through IES Milan for Business Studies, but I've studied abroad before in both France and Ghana. I love traveling and trying new things, as well as taking photos wherever I go! I also like to sew and shop in my free time, so a lot of my photos include fashion. I can't wait to get to know you all!

My name is Minghui Zheng and I also go by Emily. Growing up in China, I was surrounded by people who looked like me and share the same background as me. It was not until I moved to New York City that I started meeting people from different parts of the world. I was so amazed by different cultures, religions, and languages that I started dreaming about experiencing the culture around the world by myself one day. So here I am now, in Milan. I would love to share everything I saw and everyone I meet with you!

As a refugee, travel is something that opens up opportunities and connections for my life.
