Central College Abroad
Rainy memories
Posted May 6th, 2013 by Kaity in London, England
I’ve had this tune and the first line in my head for quite some time, so for my last assignment I decided to make it into a song about what I’ve learned while living abroad. I didn’t originally plan on sharing it, but after some encouragement I figured I might as well listen to my own lyrics and post it! So there we go. My pal Anna and I sing about what we learned during our wonderful four months in London.
When in London…

An Average Morning in London
Posted May 1st, 2013 by Kaity in London, England
Spring is finally here! And we’re leaving. Sad. But I figured before we go, I’d show you what a typical morning is like for me in this lovely city. For my next and possibly last post, I’ll have some clips of an average afternoon/evening, so that should be a bit more interesting…
London is not England

I had a lot of footage from places around England that we’ve visited as a group, so I’ve tried to condense some of it as best I could into one video. The locations include Bath, Wiltshire (Stonehenge), Oxford, Canterbury, Dover, and Greenwich (still part of London but definitely worth a trip out there too!) Living in central London you don’t really get a feel for what the rest of the country is like, so I’ve enjoyed the chance to see a few other areas as well. And the countryside is beautiful!

Fish, chips, and other fine dining

Ahh food. Can’t live…without it. Literally. Fortunately in London there are many delicacies to enjoy! Eating out can be pricey if you do it too often, but it’s also a fun way to socialize with friends and indulge in some great food. And if you look for student deals and specials on certain nights it’s actually not too bad. London is also so diverse that you can find an authentic meal from just about anywhere in the world. These are just a couple places I remembered to bring my camera! I also enjoy getting fresh food at the markets and cooking up a meal at Woburn Place. But no shame some beans on toast either. That’s very British, right?
Museums? Go see ‘em.

Hi everyone! Sorry I hadn’t properly introduced myself yet…getting here was a little hectic as you might have noticed. But now that I’m settled in London and getting the hang of this, more videos will hopefully be soon to come.
London is an expensive city, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find something to do on a budget. Trains, cartoons, dentistry, gardens, Egyptians–you can find museums about anything and everything in London. And many of them have free admission! Get in, get entertained, and maybe even get smarter? Yeah museums. Yeah London.
Getting There

Hello from London!
Posted January 10th, 2013 by in London, England
This is Kaity Sharp and I am from Dike, Iowa. I am currently pursuing an English Major and Minors in Spanish and Communications at Central College. I enjoy running, reading, and playing the ukulele in my free time. I have an affinity for coffee, musical theatre (so I am planning on attending lots of productions in London!), and merchandise with owls on it. I am very excited to travel around Europe, discover new adventures, meet people from other cultures and do anything Harry Potter-related.
