“I can’t say that I have a specific favorite experience, but just being able to travel Europe and fall in love with several cities has been the most amazing experience in itself. Cambridge is beyond beautiful and it’s great being only a 45 minute train ride away from London! Though it may be it’s own little island off of Central Europe, England has everything you could want: hiking the mountains in the Lake District, the nightlife in Liverpool, the beachside town of Brighton, the historical sights of London, and the little town of Cambridge that will definitely become your second home. This has definitely been an adventure of a lifetime.”

Izzy, we are so glad you are having such a wonderful time! Enjoy your last month in Cambridge!

Fun Fact: “My fun fact about Athens is that there are local cats and dogs all over the city! While to foreigners they may seem like strays, in Athens they say there are no strays because everyone chips in to take care of them. It’s a really cool phenomenon to witness, because there every morning the little old ladies set out food for the cats, and different people will give food to the dogs throughout the day. It has also really solidified my belief that dogs are man’s best friend. If you’re walking in a large group, there’s a very good chance that a stray dog will come and walk with you and try to protect you from any strangers it may perceive as threatening. It’s so sweet! So that’s been something very unique that I’ve enjoyed.”

Thank you, Caitlyn, for sharing so much about your time abroad! We all hope you continue having fun and learn much while abroad!
