CIAO! That is how you say hello! in Italian and that is exactly the one word I knew before embarking on my nine day adventure to Milan and Bologna, and of course a few extra days in Venice! I had been waiting for this trip basically since I found out I was studying abroad. It … Continue reading The One with More Food, More Farms, and More Fun
The One with the All Female Surgical Team
So... this was one blog post I was certainly not expecting myself to write. I guess I need to start from the beginning and explain how I ended up waiting 15 hours in the ER and having surgery abroad. If you did not already know, I have a milk allergy and this can make life … Continue reading The One with the All Female Surgical Team
The One With the Farms and Food
"Short Study Tour" is a term DIS uses to talk about a three day trip your core class goes on in September. I know I am a little late to the party with posting, but I still think it is worth talking about. We spent Monday and Tuesday of the week in Copenhagen learning about … Continue reading The One With the Farms and Food
The One with Not One, Not Two, but Three Whole Castles
You all hopefully know by now that I am really into "royal families." I just think the whole idea of it is really fun especially because my family is part Scottish royalty (but like way way back).

I have mentioned before that I have never traveled … Continue reading The One With Adventures in International Homemaking
The One with the Arrival and Confusing Public Transportation
Hej Hej! I have now arrived in Denmark and have been here for a few days. While it has only been a little over 72 hours I feel as though I have been here for ages. It is funny how time seems to slow down when you are first in a new place and trying … Continue reading The One with the Arrival and Confusing Public Transportation
The One with a Broken Laptop and a Podiatrist
So... while I know Mercury is no longer retrograde, there is certainly something in the universe that did not want my last few days at home to be easy breezy. It all started a few weeks ago when my laptop died and I sent it away to be fixed. First, the company sent the shipping … Continue reading The One with a Broken Laptop and a Podiatrist
The One with Goodbyes and Hellos
Okay, so my ticket is booked, my bag is kind of packed, and all in all I can not wait for Friday night. That being said I can not believe that my semester abroad is about to begin. I found out in February that I was going to be studying abroad and man has time … Continue reading The One with Goodbyes and Hellos
