    Fall break, Thanksgiving and Remembering Why You Chose to Study Abroad

    November 30, 2017 /

    By Imogen Henry-Campbell, Case Western Reserve University, USA As the end of the semester approaches, and in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I thought I would reflect on the incredible experiences I have gained from studying abroad. It is easy to forget why you chose to study abroad when you doing the third round of midterms and have spent endless evenings in the library. I was feeling slightly lost, terribly homesick and unmotivated until I realized how lucky I am to have experienced new things and to have travelled around the world.

To this day I’ve managed to visit NYC, Niagara Falls, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa, Mont Tremblant and Bruce Peninsula which has just made me realise how lucky I am to be in this part of the world right now!

    Top Ten

    December 14, 2013 /

    By Lisa Scott (Queen’s University, Ontario, Canada). Four days ago I completed my final exam of the fall semester at Queen’s University and now it is time for me to embrace on a four week vacation in North America, which I am extremely looking forward to. As the semester is over and a lot of my new friends are leaving (they were only on exchange for a semester). I decided now would be a perfect time for me to reflect on my favourite and most memorable moments of the semester. So here is my top ten (not in any particular order); 1 – Celebrating my 21st Birthday in one of…
