My internship placement was for a non-profit thinktank organization that aligned very well with my vague career goals. Even with little information about what exactly I wanted to pursue a career in, the internships placement team wor...

Growing up, I received National Geographic kids's magazines monthly via subscription. I vividly remember keeping a collection of them in my closet and spending my days reading about the various locations around the world and the animals that make up these ecosystems. From the luscious prairies of Africa to the jungles of South America, and even Antarctica; the places of the world began to feel wider than the community I was accustomed to. These early memories catalyzed my passion for internation...

Studying abroad with Barcelona SAE was a truly unforgettable experience that exceeded all my expectations. From the housing arrangements to the thoughtfully organized activities and academics, every aspect of the program was designed to make our time in Barcelona as immersive and enriching as possible.

I wanted to experience big city life. I grew up in a semi-small town in Missouri, so living in Barcelona for the summer sounded so chic and modern to me! (Turns out that I like greenery more than I like the concrete jungle, though!)

What inspired you to travel abroad?

Growing up in a small town outside of Grand Rapids, Michigan, I was always curious about the world around me and what was out there. When I was a freshman in high school, my orchestra had the opportunity to participate in a music festival in Northern England. It was my first taste of the international travel bug, and from there, I was absolutely hooked.
