<p>Hi! I’m Keeli and I’m a junior anthropology major from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with minors in English, history, sociology, Asian studies, and Japanese (phew!). It’s a lot of work, but I love taking classes in the social sciences &amp; humanities because it’s so rewarding to learn about such a wide variety of disciplines. They help me understand the world’s complexity when it can be tempting to think otherwise.<br><br>I love listening to all kinds of music, drawing, finding cool art, listening to podcasts, watching anime, and sharing memes. I also love cooking with my friends-- there’s nothing more satisfying than enjoying a meal that we all worked together to create! I’m also a big fan of frogs.</p>

<p>Hi! I'm Skylar. I'm a senior at Hope College, majoring in Chemistry on the premed track. The semester I study abroad is my last semester and I will graduate (and apply to medical school) when I come back to the States! I am thrilled I get to study abroad before I graduate. I am so excited to share the adventures I have while I study abroad in Rabat, Morocco with you all. After 3.5 years of all science all the time, I am looking forward to taking a break and explore Morocco with&nbsp;IES Abroad. I am most looking forward to learning Arabic and living with a host family.<br><br>Fun Fact: A few summers ago I drove from Michigan to California to hike in Yosemite and see a total eclipse!</p>

<p>Hi, I'm a junior at Bowdoin College located in Brunswick, Maine where I study English and Gender &amp; Women's studies. When I am not reading for class, I am writing for the Bowdoin Orient, the College's newspaper. This semester, I am so excited to explore the Medina and try new cuisine.</p>

<p>Hi, my name is Haley and I'm super excited to be studying in Spain this semester! I've been speaking Spanish since kindergarten, but this is one of the first times I will get to test how good I really am at communicating in a different language... wish me luck! I grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis and have only left the US once, so I can only imagine what new and exciting experiences I will have during my time in Salamanca.</p>

My name is Sumini Siyambalapitiya and I'm a junior at Lafayette College PA, studying Math/Econ and Women, Gender and Sexuality studies. I call the incredibly beautiful island of Sri Lanka my home. Some things I love in no particular order are: bubble tea, reading, working out, and This Is Us!

I'm a Junior studying abroad in Berlin! I'm studying linguistics and computer science. My favorite thing to do in my free time is roller skate and eat.

<p>I'm from small-town Minnesota and in my third year at Grinnell College, where I'm independently majoring in Health Science Writing. I enjoy drinking tea, cooking, swing dancing and signing ASL. I also read a lot of books and entertain myself with little things like research projects and scavenger hunts. I chose to study abroad in Santiago, Chile -&nbsp;a city of over 5 million - because my top two priorities were (1) to live someplace I could speak Spanish all the time, and (2) to live in a way that's significantly different from what I already know.</p>

<p>Being from a small town in Michigan, I was always eager to get out and explore the world. Upon my graduation from high school, I was gifted with the opportunity to travel to Alaska which is where my insatiable desire to see the world truly began. At school, I’m studying Psychology, Business, and History—a reflection of my many interests! When I'm not studying, I love curling up with a book, teaching Gymnastics, and exploring wherever I'm at.</p>

<p>My name is Grace Sells and I'm a junior at Carnegie Mellon University studying Global Studies and Art. I'm originally from San Jose, California, but now I'm studying in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. In my free time I enjoy making art and spending time with friends and family. Fun fact: I never go to restaurants without asking my friends for a bite of their food.</p>
