Barcelona, I love you |
Well, here is the answer: GO ABROAD. I can tell you right now that you could never regret it. Studying in a foreign country is an ineffible experience that you can only understand if you do it yourself. I know it can be a huge challenge to plan it out, but it is all worth it in the end. After diving into a new culture and exposing your senses to new things, I promise that you will never forget it.
Here are some memories I have gained over my past 2 and a half months of being abroad in Barcelona, Spain of which I know I will never forget.
Pictured here is my best friend as well as a skyline view of Barcelona. We arrived in Barcelona a day early before CEA began and stayed in a hotel with an incredible hangout area on the roof. I love this picture because you can see many famous landmarks in the city, including Torre Agbar, Sagrada Familia, and Avinguda Diagonal. Upon seeing this view for the first time I knew I had chosen the right city to study in.

After staying a night in our hotel, I was awe-struck by another view. However, this time the view was from my very own apartment balcony. Check it out.

One of the best parts about studying in a city you've never been to before is that you will always stumble upon things you never knew existed. That is exactly what happened when I saw this cathedral. Seriously, just go abroad.
