Aero: Henry Livingston – France 2018 – My Expectations

… … I’m enthusiastic to have this opportunity to study abroad in such a diverse, vibrant, and intriguing place as France.

Aero: Piper Lambert-Vail – France 2018 – My Expectations

… … My expectations for what it’ll be like to be in a foreign country for two weeks are partly based around my excitement and imagination. I have never been outside of this continent so I have many dreams and fantastical expectations about what it’ll be like. The only “foreign” country I’ve been to is […]

Aero: Dallas Zebrowski – France 2018 – My Expectations

… … I would like to preface this first reflection regarding my initial expectations with a promise, which is essential to the credibility of my answer.

Aero: Brent Roberts – France 2018 – My Expectations

Aero: Brianna Cardina – Costa Rica 2016 – My Expectations

… It will be an adventure – totally different from what goes on where I live. I’m nervous, but only because I’m not good at Spanish. The only fear I have is getting lost from the others when we travel. (That, and the bugs). Overall I’m excited and ready to go on this trip. I know to expect adventure, […]

Aero: Sarah Warner – Costa Rica 2016 – My Expectations

… When I signed up for this trip, it was honestly quite a spontaneous decision. I saw a flyer, and that day called my parents who to my surprise gave me the okay. Growing up I dreamed of traveling not only in college but also throughout my life (I was always one to dream big). […]
