As I am sitting here reflecting on the trip to Scotland, all I can think about is how blessed I am to be a student at The University of Georgia. More importantly, blessed to be a student in the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences. The opportunities afforded to the students in our college are…

What an awesome 10 days. From sight-seeing, getting to know the others on the trip, to teaching primary children at Troqueer Primary School. I have definitely grown as a person by being opened to this slightly new culture. I also have a new appreciation for God’s creations and how different the world is from Georgia.…

I was stressed for no reason. This place is beautiful! The 8hr flight was really not that bad and London is fantastic. I have been very exhausted, but the lack of sleep is totally worth it. The trains have been my favorite part so far. They ensure me that I am not in the U.S.…

I have been waiting for this trip for months! I didn’t really have anything in my mind what I was getting into since I have never been to another country.

Today has been eventful! I finally made it to the airport. This is my very first time flying so checking in and getting to where I needed to be has been quite the experience. It’s been a very hectic past couple weeks. Between midterms and homework, I feel like I’ve been going like crazy. Although…

We leave for Scotland in mere hours and I am not sure what emotions I’m supposed to have. I have never been out of the country, I have barely been out of the tri state area except on a few, rare occasions so no one emotion has hit me yet. I am excited to go…

Mark Twain said it best – Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. Study abroad in Uruguay is…
