It’s been a week since we left Costa Rica and all I want to do is go back. Not because it’s almost finals week and I would like to be anywhere else than in my apartment studying, but because Costa Rica is a pretty amazing country. The people are very friendly. I have never had…

I am trying to think of absolutely everything that I might possibly need for the The Grand Tour: Art and Gardens of Europe trip that starts TOMORROW! Along with a billion other things that cross your mind when you are…

My trip technically leaves in two days, however I’m flying out in four days because I am a senior and couldn’t imagine not participating in graduation. I am beyond excited to experience this chunk of the world I’ve never been exposed to. My family is Nigerian, and I’ve been abroad to Africa so I know some of…
