5 Things I Learned While Studying Abroad + YouTube Channel

Hello everyone! I know it's been a while since I last posted a blog post on here and to be honest with you, I've been having a case of writer's block. Since it's been two years since I went to France things aren't as fresh in my head which is contributing to me having a hard time coming up with new blog posts. For that reason I've decided to come up with a YouTube channel! I will be creating short 5 minute videos about various subjects pertaining to study abroad.

Coming back home from studying abroad

I honestly cannot believe that it has been one year since I came back from Paris. I know I say this all the time but it's honestly crazy how fast time has flown by since I started blogging. Going back home after a year or even a semester abroad can be tricky, but here are some of my tips to make navigating around the airport a bit easier for you.

Study Abroad Horror Stories

I know I usually don't focus on the bad things that could happen when you go study abroad but it is important for me to acknowledge that things do happen. Today in my Commercial French class we were talking about cultural differences and some study abroad horror stories. Most of the people in my class are international business major and my professor was the head of the IB study abroad program for 9 years so he has a fair share of problems that he's had to resolve.

Who's Studying Abroad in the U.S.

Today I would like to share with you an infograph about who's exactly studying abroad in the United States. Most of the study abroad infographs I've seen deal with studying abroad in terms of Americans going to other countries but in this case the people at OnlineDegrees.org decided to look at the 765,000 foreign students who came to study abroad in America in the 2011/2012 school year.
