Is This My Stop?
Wow! I’ve been in Korea for over 10 weeks now! Time sure flies! Reflecting on my experience so far, I realize I’ve been traveling around Seoul a lot recently. So, how do I usually get around Korea? Depending on where I want to go, I rely heavily on the subway system. If I can’t get ...
Traveling Around: Edinburgh Edition
There are endless great things about studying abroad. One of the best things about being in Europe in particular is how easy (and affordable) it is to explore and travel to other countries within the continent! We have a friend from Drexel who has been studying in Edinburgh, Scotland since January. Our first weekend experience ...
Four-day Weekend at Japan
Somewhere I’ve always wanted to visit growing up was Japan. Japanese culture made an entrance to my life early on once I discovered art and animation. It continues to influence my style in drawing and holds a near and dear part of my childhood. I figured since I was doing study abroad in Korea, and ...

Wonders of the World: Stonehenge
There are so many great things to do in London, and the city itself is so large, sometimes I forget there is a surrounding country! There are many historical sites to see in England, so I bought a ticket to visit my first one, Stonehenge. There are many accessible and affordable day trips offered to ...
Visit to Victoria Medical Centre
My favorite part about the classes at FIE London, is that fact that our professors utilize the city of London as a learning tool! We are able to go on field trips that pertain to our class subjects, all while exploring our temporary home. Recently in my Healthcare Policy class, we took a visit to ...
