1a. The event I chose is my semester studying abroad in Glasgow, Scotland. I recently studied abroad this past spring semester at the University of Glasgow, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I was able to learn more about a new country and its culture, while simultaneously learning more about myself in the process. I have never traveled to Europe prior to my semester abroad, so I was definitely nervous about adjusting to life in a new country. Though I easily adjusted, and was able to meet many new people and make friends. In addition to learning and traveling to Scotland, I am lucky to have been able to travel all over Europe and meet up with my friends from Bucknell. Almost all of my friends also studied abroad, so I was able to travel with them every few weekends, which made the experience that much more enjoyable. When traveling, I always flew on a plane to different countries because Scotland is far from the European mainland. When in other countries though, I traveled by high speed trains. Overall, I enjoyed this experience so much and it changed my outlook on other countries and traveling.
