Choosing CEA Madrid

cre: Choosing CEA Madrid When I was first considering going abroad, several programs offered places I wanted to go. I had a hard time specifying which city I wanted to study in, only because there are so many amazing places in the world to go to. How does someone choose just one?

Reflecting on two weeks abroad

cre: Reflecting on two weeks abroad From the start of my travels, I knew this was a period of my life that I was going to learn. I’m not entirely sure I realized how much I would learn – until I sat down after a week in Ireland and thought. Similar to how you attend class and study for an exam in school, I find that as the days pass you easily forget the little things until you review them. Every day I sit down and write down what I did, what I saw, and what I felt – almost like taking notes from a personal conference. I’ve been in Ireland for just over two weeks and it’s scary how incredibly easy it is to forget an experience. I don’t want this time to be as momentary as a stamp in my passport or as distant as a photograph. I want to memorize these moments so that they are not just a chapter of my life that ends and reopens for me to say “look what I did”. Rather, I mean “look who I am”. Classes haven’t started yet but my studies abroad have definitely started. Here is a preview o

When I Look Back

cre: When I Look Back When I think back to York, I think back to all the adventures I’ve had, the places I’ve been lucky enough to see, and the people who will stay with me for the rest of my life, but as I write this reflection, I felt like I was leaving much of my trip behind. I wrote about my travels, about my experiences, about my friends, but never about one of the best things that happened to me in York. I fell in love with someone. Fell hard, pure and simple. We met randomly on a bus. I was coming back from a party. He was getting pizza (good start I know). The two of us just started chatting like no one else was on that bus. It was the fastest bus ride ever because before I knew it we were walking separate paths. That was it. I didn’t see him again for another six weeks and honestly forgot about the entire encounter that even happened until I finally saw him again. He was sitting at a table full of people when I walked down the stairs adjacent to his table. He had his back

cre: Adulting Abroad: the hard truth about what to expect when studying or interning abroad Nobody really wants to grow up. We want the advantages and independence that come with adulthood, but none of the disadvantages. Studying abroad is much the same. We all want to see the Eiffel Tower, swim in the Mediterranean, carefree eat pizza and ice cream in Italy, hike the Great Wall of China and hike the Andes without worrying about logistics, funding and security. risk management. But, like in life, studying abroad requires us to put on our big girl/boy panties and grow a little taller. I find that as study abroad becomes more accessible and more students go abroad each year, fewer and fewer students leave their countries with the hope of moving on. time in a foreign country. What students need to know boils down to a few points: you can’t know everything before you go, be prepared to adapt, use good judgment, and develop your problem-solving skills.

But there is a little more than that. This blog tells you everything you need to write the perfect post – post writing format, some examples and insider tips and tricks! A message is a quick piece of information you write for someone when you can’t reach them directly. This message can be written or delivered verbally, and transmitted by a number of methods, including phone calls, text messages and emails.

Checklist

cre: Checklist When I was at home in London, I tried to do as many of my favorite things as possible. I explored different parts of the city, revisited the National Gallery, ate at my favorite restaurants, wandered the shopping streets and spent a lot of time in my comfortable bed. On my last day, while strolling down Oxford Street looking for last minute items to take to Cape Town, my dad and I were trapped by a very sudden downpour of rain. The rain subsided for a few minutes, until again passers-by were forced under awnings, huddled together with their full shopping bags to avoid getting drenched. And then the rain turned to drizzle, the typical cloudy London sky clearing until the sun rose, reflecting its light on the newly lacquered streets. It seemed that the capricious weather conditions in London mimicked my emotions as I prepared for my six-week trip to South Africa. But despite my mood swings from anxiety to denial to anticipation to excitement, I’m ready for a summer tha

No matter how much you have read and prepared before you leave, there will always be a learning curve when adjusting to life in another country, but I hope the following tips will help you avoid some uncomfortable situations when of your everyday life in Germany. Language Don’t rely on English. You may be just a beginner, but using your German skills will take you far. The people you interact with will appreciate it and you will be treated differently than if you spoke English, even if you make mistakes. The Germans will correct your German. Don’t be embarrassed, that’s how it is. German is a very precise language, which leaves a non-native speaker open to error. My German has been corrected many times by people I didn’t know, and it’s important not to let embarrassment get in the way of my learning. With a little ex

Cachai?: Artistas Callejeros

cre: Cachai?: Artistas Callejeros Hi friends! Here’s your boy Anthony Perez with another quick review of how Santiago, Chile treats me. Well, today I wanted to inform any prospective Drexel University study abroad students interested in going to Chile or just anyone who has spare time to read this article, of something very common that you you will see throughout Chile: street artists (or callejeros artists). It’s no joke when I say street performers are everywhere! You would normally think these street performers would head to busier areas such as the Plaza de Armas (where the featured image was taken); however, no matter the time, I always spot street performers in the neighborhood where I live. Granted, the student residence I’m staying in is located right next to Parque Bustamante (which is quite crowded at all times), but I also see artists far from the area. The effort to attract attention in order to receive Chilean pesos or monedas (coins) is quite amazing. The most common p

After adjusting and settling into my new home in Kensington, I had some time to explore the borough. One of the orientation activities planned by the FIE included a guided tour of London by sleeper bus. This is where I was able to identify specific places I want to visit and must-try places to eat. We also toured the Palace of Westminster, where the Houses of Parliament are located. It was so interesting to see where the laws were made and to think about the history of those places, but it was even more exciting to see the rooms that many of my favorite shows have recreated. Attached to the Palace of Westminster is the Big Ben. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, the Big Ben is currently under construction. As you can see below only one side of the clock can be seen and the rest is covered in such be
