Missives from Afar: Study Abroad Stories

Current Issue: Volume 1, Issue 1 (2024) September/October

Welcome to our Study Abroad Blog, where the world becomes our classroom and every destination is an opportunity for growth and discovery. As someone who has had the privilege of studying in both Sweden and the Netherlands, I can personally attest to the transformative power of immersing oneself in a new culture. My time abroad not only contributed to my academic journey, earning school credit while exploring these incredible countries, but also broadened my understanding of the diverse world we live in. This blog is a platform for students to share their own stories from across the globe. Whether it's the excitement of navigating a new city, the joy of embracing unfamiliar customs, or the challenges that come with stepping out of one’s comfort zone, these experiences are invaluable. Each post reflects the unique blend of academic learning and cultural exposure that study abroad offers, and we hope these stories inspire you to embark on your own global adventure. Through these shared experiences, I hope to encourage you to see the world with fresh eyes, to appreciate the beauty in our differences, and to understand that the world truly is a vast and exciting place, just waiting to be explored. Safe travels and happy reading! Warm regards, Paulina Poteet Editor, Study Abroad Blog
