The time is 11:38. I just arrived home from participating in UGA’s Undergraduate Commencement Ceremony and in a little less than 12 hours, will board a plan to embark on my final adventure as an AgDawg. To say that I am excited would be a large understatement. To say that I am nervous would be…

From the very beginning of my time at UGA, I have always dreamed of studying abroad, and in a couple of days that dream will become a reality! I never imagined that I would ever be able to go abroad for a full two weeks, but the College of Agriculture and Environmental Science’s Dean’s Promise…

I have always had a true passion for traveling. I have traveled to 25 states and 12 countries (which will be 13 after this trip). Even in my middle school and early high school years, I knew I wanted to study abroad. I heard about this Romania trip specifically for my major and I couldn’t…

Last summer, I found myself in a small Kansas town as I worked for the American Hereford Association. This summer, I am heading in a direction that is quite the opposite as I jet off to Romania for a Culture-Centered Communication Study Abroad to document the happenings around agricultural philanthropy in communities.

As I comfortably relax back home, kicking my feet up on an ottoman, I reflect on how thankful I am that finals are over. Although I no longer have finals on my mind, I can think of nothing else but the date May 11th. That is the day that I’ll be boarding a plane and…

It’s been about a month since I’ve arrived back in my hometown from Ireland, the last country on our tour. However, I still find myself thinking daily about the time I spent there, and not because I’ve been working on a big journal assignment ever since either. When I go to the park to run, when…

The Cortona 2015 Viticulture and Enology Study Abroad program ended on June 2nd. Time in Cortona flew very fast. I wanted to stay one more week to taste more wines and visit more wineries. I think I will miss everything I have done in Cortona. I will miss the sensory labs, eating delicious sandwiches in…

After I and the UGA students had arrived in Rome, we headed to Cortona where our campus is located. At the Kehoe center, I saw the beautiful Cortona view. The view was amazing, and I was speechless for seconds. In addition, the whole city was like a medieval age city because of elegant and classic…
