I just finished most of my packing for my Costa Rican Maymester (I leave tomorrow, nothing like procrastination!) I’ve never had to pack for a 3 week trip, let alone pack for that much time in under 50 pounds, so it was interesting to say the least. I’m getting so nervous, but overall I’m really excited.…

Bonjour! That’s the only French I know and I seriously doubt it will get me through three weeks in France. Although it is relatively easy to pick up enough phrases to get by, it is much harder to pick up an entire culture in three weeks. I decided to go on this study abroad trip…

Between preparing for Europe and studying for finals, the last few weeks have been a grind and somewhat unnerving. However, I think the stress of finals have prevented me from becoming so anxious about my trip. My biggest concern going into the Toulouse program is my inability to speak any French. Fortunately, CAES orchestrated a…

Growing up in a small town of roughly 6000 people in north Georgia, leaving the country for three weeks to stay in France will be quite an adjustment. I feel that the toughest part of this trip will be the language barrier. In different parts of the US, I have experienced a language barrier due…

So, I am sitting at the airport, and I am tired. I woke up at 3:30 am and drove here, and I’m just tired. However, I am so excited about this trip that I can’t even imagine napping as I wait for departure. My parents are doing seesaw impressions going between “This will be an…

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…

I leave for France in approximately t-43 hours… it hasn’t fully processed yet and I am slightly stressing about all that needs to happen before I leave. This is the busiest time in UGA Housing, and my time as an RA is ticking down, but checkouts have kept me occupied for the past week and…

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…

It’s 12:15 am the day I leave for my study abroad and I just started packing, in my typical procrastinator fashion. Ironically, I’m very much the planner, I just continually put off carrying out those plans. I told myself that I would try to change that before studying abroad, but clearly that didn’t happen. I…

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…
