What class are you most looking forward to taking while studying abroad?
I'm looking forward to my Feminist 伦敦 Activism in the City class. 我是一个性别, 性, and Women's Studies minor at the University of Pittsburgh, so this was one of my most anticipated classes. I was thrilled when I saw it on my schedule!

Why did you choose to study or intern abroad? And why did you choose your destination?
我选择了 study abroad in 伦敦 because I wanted to get outside of my comfort zone. The 伦敦 study abroad program was such a great fit for my major. All the classes that I'll take abroad will count towards my major. Beyond academics, I wanted to push myself socially. I'm a pretty big introvert, so studying abroad was always very intimidating. I'm ready to put myself out there and meet new people!

What is something you're passionate and excited about? (Hobbies, interests, causes, etc.)
I'm very passionate about reading, writing, and creating! I'm so excited to be a content creator for 东航卡帕. I love taking photos when I travel, so this was the perfect opportunity. Another one of my passions is food. I cannot wait to experience the food culture in such a diverse city like 伦敦.

what is one new experience you're hoping to have while abroad?
One new experience I'm hoping to have while abroad is making friends with local 伦敦ers! Earlier this summer I studied abroad for three weeks in 意大利的佛罗伦萨, however I only made friends with girls from my program that also go to my school. I hope that, since I'm doing a full semester in 伦敦, I'll meet locals and become friends!
