Sleepless in Scotland

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

There’s nothing quite like the surge of nostalgia you get when you realize you’re doing something for the last time. You’re sitting in a booth of your favorite pub surrounded by everyone who means a lot to you, and it hits you that this is the last time that these people will all gather together …

It is designed to make its own people comfortable.” -Clifton Fadiman My second week in Spain, I decided to travel from Granada to Madrid to spend a few days with my cousin Kristina. (For those of you who have …

Homeless in Rome (Kind Of)

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

I returned home yesterday from a two-week Eurotrip. It began in Cork then moved on to Granada in Spain, Berlin, Thessaloniki, Athens, some Greek islands, and Rome.

On Being Wrong

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

I chose the enormous picture at the top of this page because it sums up a pretty big portion of how my friends and I have been spending this semester: Being huge idiots and sticking out like sore thumbs. Recently, Hannah and I realized something cool about our time in Europe. For five months of …

It’s All About The People

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

The bond formed between people who’ve been plopped into a foreign country where they don’t know a single soul is pretty unique to the study abroad experience, and it’s the stuff of fairy tales. Allow me to explain. So it’s a Wednesday like any other, no big deal. Except for the fact that you’ve just …

Reverse Dog Years

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

At this point, it’s probably not a surprise to you twelve dedicated readers that Hannah and I sometimes leave writing these posts until the last minute. In fact, we’ve been banking pretty hard on the fact that the East Coast is five hours behind in order to get these posts out on time. At least, …

Chatting in Spanish

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

chat, chatting (v): to talk in a friendly and informal way. I love to chat. I really do. Chatting over drinks, chatting at dinner, chatting in between classes—it’s a great way to pass time and get to know people. Now, I’m going to stop right there. At least half of you are already thinking about …

On Fainting And Becoming An Immigrant

February 26, 2017 by hjadmin

Most of the time, Ireland is a magical wonderland. You can sit on the top floor of double-decker buses and watch as they almost run over old ladies. You can buy a champagne-sized bottle of cider for 4 euro. They put milk and sugar in their tea. So I thought that maybe, just maybe, going …
