Applying for a Japanese Visa in Hong Kong as an American Citizen

cre: Applying for a Japanese Visa in Hong Kong as an American Citizen Tuesday | August 15, 2017 | Shatin, New Territories, Hong Kong Good morning ! Thanks for viewing my blog. My name is Allen and I will be documenting my adventures in Japan here for the fall semester (August to December 2017). While I’m sure I’ll be blogging about more exciting things in the future, I’m starting with a more informative, and therefore denser, post on my entire visa application process. As the title suggests, my situation was quite unconventional as I spent my summer studying at Chinese University in Hong Kong. Since their program runs from the end of June to the end of August and IES Abroad Tokyo starts at the end of August, I have not had the opportunity to apply for my Japanese visa in the United States. As a result, I had to do a lot of emailing and researching to make sure everything was going well. Could I even apply for a Hong Kong visa? What if it doesn’t work? Should I stop studying in Japa

Choosing Antibes: How I Came to Study in the French Riviera

cre: Choosing Antibes: How I Came to Study in the French Riviera I never imagined in a million years that I would choose to study abroad on the French Riviera. Even though I had been learning French since kindergarten, I had never imagined visiting – let alone living – in France. But yet, here I am, sitting on my balcony, overlooking my rue d’Antibes. I knew I wanted to study abroad ever since I visited Ireland when I was in high school. Over the summer it was my prerogative to look at all the different areas I might go to. My mom was also excited and even made a list of places she thought I would be interested in: Edinburgh, Scotland; Prague, Czech Republic; Florence, Italy. The place that surprised me was the Côte d’Azur in the south of France. I was surprised by the stark contrast of the beach and the French Alps, the old town of Antibes and the marina. The destination description mentioned the French Riviera as a place where 1920s expats like Pablo Picasso, Ernest Heming

One Month Later

cre: One Month Later And just like that, I’ve been in London for a whole month! Here are four things I learned in the past four weeks abroad. Appreciate the time. On the one hand, I feel like it was yesterday that I was sitting at my departure gate at Newark Airport, anticipating my trip. On the other hand, London looks like the house I have always lived in. The crazy thing about time is that you don’t realize how fast it is going by until you think about it. I wouldn’t suggest counting your days abroad, even if you want to. Just live in the moment and make every day count! Even on a rainy day, I always try to get out there and accomplish one thing, even if it’s just trying a new cafe or walking around another part of town. Keep a diary. I’ve never been the type to keep a personal journal, even though I love to write. However, after being abroad for a few days, I decided that I wanted to keep track of all of my experiences. Keeping a travel journal is a great way to keep track

cre: Good-bye, Small Town, USA! Hello, Vienna! Screenshot 2017-08-15 at 12.40.51 PM.png Washington DC, June 2017 Welcome to my blog! My name is Victoria Rice. These entries will be my means of documentation for fall 2017, AKA, the semester I spent in Vienna, Austria. I am from the small rural town of Clewiston, Florida. I left America’s Sweetest Town two years ago to study at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia. I am a major in anthropology and human biology and a minor in religion. I am a reporter for the Her Campus section of my university, I am on the board of directors of the Emory Anthropology Student Society, and I am a sister of Delta Phi Epsilon. When I’m not in class, you will probably find me at the library or at a local cafe. My trip to Vienna will take place in less than a week. I have four days to say goodbye to my friends and family, pack my bags and learn enough German to travel to the city where I will be spending the next four months. (“Einen Kaffee, bitte”

The Bell Curve!

cre: The Bell Curve! When I decided to study abroad at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, one of my biggest reliefs was the pass / fail grading system for credit. Which meant I just had to pass the course at my overseas university to get the Drexel equivalent course credits. Sounds exciting, right? Imagine spending a term in a foreign country and at a university without having to worry about your GPA. I had started my trading term with similar thoughts. Because I didn’t have to worry much about lessons, I got involved in a credit-based research experience with a teacher and also joined the squash team and other cultural clubs on campus. . Whenever I had quizzes or homework for class, I didn’t bother to work very hard because of the fleeting state of mind. However, things weren’t as easy as I expected, because of this really tricky scoring system – “The Bell Curve”. In one of my previous blogs, I had mentioned that my local friends had taught me that most teachers tend t

Getting Settled in Seville

cre: Getting Settled in Seville Getting on the plane that would take me to Europe was an incredibly surreal experience. I had to check the ticket at least fifteen times to make sure it said I was on my way to study abroad in Seville. I could not believe it. It was as if this dream I had for so long was right in front of me and for the first time I had the ability to make it come true. All I had to do was take that step on the plane and begin the adventure that awaited me on the other side of the world. My biggest fear about this trip was that it would be less than I expected somehow. Yet from the moment I arrived in Seville, the city immediately exceeded my highest expectations. The streets, people and culture were even more alive than I expected. The CEA organized my pick-up at the airport and transported me and my roommate directly to our accommodation. We drove through some of the most beautiful streets in the city in a 30 minute drive to our apartment. Our host mom greeted

Argentine Food: An American Review

cre: Argentine Food: An American Review The first thing I will notice about Argentinian cuisine is that blogs are right. When they say people eat empanadas, asados ​​(grilled meat, almost always from cow), and dulce de leche, they’re not kidding. My first day here I had all three … and my second day here I had all three again. Despite my crucial research on Argentina food before I came, I didn’t expect what I came across … The cafe is tiny Make no mistake, the coffee here is far superior to coffee in the United States. I drink black coffee almost every morning (a telltale sign of addiction), but I drink from a mug the size of a large bowl of soup. One of our program assistants told me that black coffee exists here … “coffee negra,” she said. It’s just a shot of espresso. If you want a cup larger than the size your doll would drink in, go to a cafe with size choices or mix in some milk. If you’re really lucky (and somewhere fancier), they’ll bring you little cookies with your cof

Wonders of the World: Stonehenge

cre: Wonders of the World: Stonehenge There are so many great things to do in London, and the city itself is so big, sometimes I forget there is a surrounding country! There are a lot of historic sites to see in England so I bought a ticket to visit my first one, Stonehenge. There are many accessible and affordable day trips to explore England. There are many variations of each tour, including multi-city, half-day, and full-day trips. My tour included bus transportation, an audio tour, and a half-day entrance to Stonehenge. The bus ride to Stonehenge took about two hours from the English countryside. It was really interesting to see the acres of fields just outside of bustling London. Our final destination was Wiltshire, England, where Stonehenge is located. Buying a tour online was well worth it as we were able to skip the massive line of people waiting to buy an entrance ticket. A small shuttle escorted us about a mile from the Visitor Center to Stonehenge itself. Stonehenge is o
