So I'd say it's been a while since my last posting.... and I have no excuses at all for you. I admit, I've been really taking advantage of this whole one class three days a week thing, I love it! I'm sure going to have a tough time returning to EC! The other day, I was complaining to my dad about all the papers I have to write, and he reminded me I'm here to study, not just travel! That was a big slap in the face. haha. For my examination fo...

Hey peeps! (haha, I was told to start with that!) So I think it is officially spring! :) Yesterday it was 81 DEGREES in the sun!

When I got to the hostel room, I met some guys from Colorado and Chicago in the living room just hanging out and watching TV so we ch...

So here I am in Goteberg (Gothenberg), Sweden... ALONE! Yes, I know I´m such a rebel. I am finally doing what I have been dreaming of since I arrived here, travling alone. I decided to come here yesterday morning because I knew I had a three day weekend I figured why not go somewhere? haha so I bought a train ticket and here I am. My friend Daeun, from Korea, actually came with me for the day. She has a Eurail pass and it was free for her to come on the tra...
