How Living in Europe has made me a Greener Person
A few weeks ago I wrote all about how good Germans are at recycling (and how difficult it can be in America). Since I’ve spent the last two years of my life in Europe (and about 2 years total in Germany specifically), I think it would be pretty incredible for me not to have picked…
Why Milan isn’t as Bad as Italians Claim
This past week was quite busy. Between studying, exams, a group project presentation, and preparing for my trip, I didn’t have a whole lot of spare time. But when I got a text from my best friend from Frankfurt School that she would have a brief moment in her busy schedule to visit me in Milan,…

It’s been one year since moving abroad!
One year can either feel like a split second or a lifetime, but I can’t recall any years that felt like both at the same time. Either way, I cannot believe that one year ago I boarded a plane and left my family and country behind. When I look back at who I was when…

Last week was a bit stressful and overwhelming, but like always I’m going to share every gritty detail with you. Crazy Week at Work This last week was absolutely nuts at work. Why you might…
The Election from the Perspective of an American Student in Europe
I wanted to take a few days after the election to really gather and process my thoughts before putting pen to paper. I am going to try and keep this post as short as I can because although I am feeling many emotions and have many thoughts on the matter, a lot of them have…
Two Weeks ’til I Move to the Other Side of the World – My Thoughts
I had big plans scheduled for todays post but when it came time to put fingers to the keyboard, I just couldn’t find the right words. The truth is that I’m getting incredibly sentimental. Perhaps you had already gleaned that from my last Food is Good post where I professed my love for McDonalds and other foods…
