Getting to Europe… well that’s another thing but oh the experiences you have when you’re here! I’m spending my semester abroad at Utrecht University in the Netherlands.

KU’s main building in September vs December Here we are, my final blog post. Hard to believe it’s already been four months since I came to Korea. My semester is officially done 😭 Deciding to come on exchange has been one of the best decisions I think I have made so far. The experience really is…Continue Reading Evelyn: 얘들아~~ 고생 많이 했다!

It’s that life is all about balance 🙂 This is going to sound cliché, but time really has flown by!

My first flight abroad in almost three years. Though it wasn’t my first time in Japan, it was my first time staying for an extended period of time. I couldn’t wait to experience what it would be like to live here, as I’d only ever come to visit family and friends before. I came early…Continue Reading Joe: First Impressions

The day can vary considerably depending on whether or not I have a class that day. On the days (Tuesday to…Continue Reading Oscar: A Day In Copenhagen!
Wow, time really does fly when you’re having fun. Hard to believe it’s already been two months since I arrived in Korea and that we’re already halfway through the semester.
