Wow! It’s been crazy here in Vienna. Everything is settling into a rhythm and my schedule feels like it’s made up of some very long days. (But I am never bored.) In my last post I told you all about our CCA trips to Salzburg and I thought it might be time to tell you…

What a semester! Before coming to Mexico I knew my study abroad experience would be life changing but I really had no idea in what way. After being home for about two weeks and having time to reflect on my abroad experience I am astonished by how much I have changed. Traveling to another country…

This will be just a short post today as I have a lot to get done! As I sit here doing some studying I’ve realized that one of the biggest differences between studying at Bangor and studying at Central is definitely the classes. Before I came here I didn’t think there would be much of…

I have always dreamed of visiting London; seeing Big Ben has always been towards the top of my bucket list. Last weekend, I finally got to make that dream a reality. Of course I wanted to see as much as possible in the three days that I was there, so I arrived with a long…

One of the benefits of studying in Bangor is the 3 week long Easter Break the university has. This break is the perfect opportunity to travel around Europe, which is exactly what I did! I do not have near enough space on this blog to tell you about everything I’ve done, but here is just…

The second to last group excursion of the semester lead us to the state of Chiapas for a jammed packed weekend of traveling and sight-seeing. The majority of our weekend was taken up by traveling, but when we were finally able to get out of the vans; everything seemed to be worth it. After living…
