We have been home for about 4 days and I thought life would slow down a bit, but it hasn’t. Between analyzing data and adjusting to the time change, I still feel like I haven’t settled in. Taking a minute to step away from my group and trip, I’m walking away with such gratitude. I…

Whew! What a long day. We spent the day taking a bus tour of the Highlands of Scotland. My favorite part of today was taking a boat tour of Loch Ness. During my childhood, my mother (who is Irish) used to tell us and sing about different folk tales of Scotland and Ireland. I spent…

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. But, so far I have been very impressed from an agricultural view. We have seen some awesome operations and learned so much from management practices…

Our time in Uruguay is coming to an end, but the experiences and memories I’ve had along the way will stay with me forever. It’s our second to last day, and we’ve traveled what seems like the entirety of the country. Visiting the cities and different farms has been amazing, but my favorite day has…
