Merci, Paris

Its not goodbye, its see you later.

by lillian

Well Paris, it’s been a great year. I think we can both say that we’ve been through a lot in the last ten months, and I’m glad we could go through these changes together. You forced me out of my comfort zone, made me experience so many thrills, eat so...

Happiness in Havlíčkovy Sady

A great good place that helped show me the beauty of Prague.

by Danasaur

Prague is a place full of “great good places”. There are little cafes and bars (like U Sudu or Popo Cafe Petl or Vodka Bar, to name a few) that have created what can only be thought of as the Czech version of an iceberg - the places appear to be...

American Art

What is common and uneventful in America has been transformed into art in the Czech Republic

by Danasaur

Vincent van Gogh told his brother that he wanted to help other people to ‘see’ the south and to show them the alluring beauty that was so apparent to him. His paintings clearly were inspirational, allowing Alain de Botton the opportunity to admire a...

It's Just Another City That I Happen to Love

My expectations about a city that I knew nothing about.

by Danasaur

I don’t think I can accurately describe the way that I was feeling before coming to Prague. Nervous, excited, anxious, concerned, hopeful, curious - name an emotion and I’m sure that I felt it in the days leading up to what would be a life changing...

Paris, lets meet again, soon?

A reluctant, yet inevitable, goodbye

by francesca

Saying goodbye to Paris and my quaint and charmed life here is one of the most difficult farewells I have encountered thus far. I have nothing but positive thoughts and memories of my abroad experience, and reflecting on them, while saddening in the context of a...

Paris, Need I say more?

Future NYU Parisians, you are in for a treat

by francesca

Before moving to Paris, I had visited the city twice, both brief visits, filled mainly by museums and eating. I enjoyed Paris immensely during these visits, and was always charmed by the idea of the Parisian lifestyle—and thus I decided to study abroad here to...

Forever Will Italia Have A Piece Of My Heart

Realizing that leaving Firenze is harder then I ever expected.

by Dani

Its bizarre that my time in Florence is coming to a close so quickly.  In eight days I will be back on a plane to Vegas for the summer, a life which couldn’t be more different than this sleepy Renaissance town.  Even though I’ve had my fair share...

I Did Have the Time of My Life

Reflections on the Abroad Experience

by dmiller

Wow. I don't even know where to begin.  Going abroad, quite frankly, has been the most wonderful experience of my life.  I've learned so much about myself, new places, and about home.  I've learned that its important to take advantage of certain...

Reflections and final thoughts on my semester in France

by Godot

"You get a strange feeling when you're about to leave a place, I told him, like you'll not only miss the people you love but you'll miss the person you are now at this time and this place, because you'll never be this way ever again."

― Azar...

Au revoir Paris, you will be missed

Final words from the end of my eye opening semester

by Alexander

 

 

The last four and a half months have held so much more than I could have ever hoped for or imagined. The experience of coming abroad has, as expected, held tremendous highs and lows. Before leaving it was something I took lightly. I...

Not Farewell Yet

What I've learned from this course and from this year

by naomi

Because the Japanese school year is different from America's, I still have 3.5 months before I'll be returning back to America. From the viewpoint of a semester abroad it would seem like a long time, but after having already been here for twice that long I know how...

5 Tips about Japan

Five things I have discovered to be important for studying abroad in Japan

by naomi

Obviously after having studied abroad here twice now, I would recommend to anyone Japan as a study abroad site. It’s a beautiful, quirky, old country that is not like America in any way, and for those who do wish to study here I have five tips:

Ciao Bella!

Make new friends, keep the old, one is silver and the other gold

by Jackie

Ciao Bella!

Andiamo, time to go!


My time in Florence is drawing to a dramatic close as I finish off my last week here. It feels like I have been here forever, yet it also feels like I just got here yesterday.

Florence was a new...
