7 Students Share Their Best Memories From Time Abroad

Between sunrise and late night study sessions, daily activities like walks around the neighborhood or a quick stop for a cup of tea with conversation become your fondest memories while you are abroad. We asked some of our students to share their favorite memories of their time abroad, through quotes and photos.

"I went to Bern, Switzerland with my friends. Its name means ‘the city of bear’ and I think it is very suitable for its atmosphere. Bern was an antique and calm city that had both nature and tourists." || Photo by #ISEPStudyAbroad student Seo Yeon C. from Ewha Womans University who studied abroad at @jkulinz in #Austria. #Bern #switzerland #city #studyabroad #travel #travelgram #studentnomad #passionpassport #collegetourist #worldexchangers #internationalexchange

The cultural experience has been AMAZING! I’ve learned to feel the fear and do it anyway! My travel experience has taught me to appreciate things, beyond my academic life. I feel very blessed, ecstatic and thankful for all of my new friends and this opportunity. - @nataliamontesinos. — Looking for more of Natalia’s takeover as she studies abroad in Indonesia?

#ISEPPhotoProject #Art #CultureSaturday || "During the [Uruguayan] dictatorial regime, graffiti writing was a political tool treated as a political crime. Most, if not all, of the graffiti that emerged during this time was text-based, it was produced by political militants and its content was overtly political. In the transition era that followed, the graffiti medium exploded in Montevideo, and was produced by a broad sector of the population. It remained predominantly text-based, however its content ranged from the overtly political…to the artistic and poetic." -Ximena Griscti We love this picture of #ISEPAlumni @abbyhegland posing in front of Uruguayan #streetart.

“During a winter break, I’d been to Grand Canyon National Park, AZ. Snow all over the place is not the most common view that people see of the Grand Canyon. But it was more beautiful and lively than in the summer. So I wonder why people don’t come to visit in the winter?” || Photo by #ISEPStudyAbroad student @htraeroflla from Thammasat University, Thailand, who studied abroad @montanastateuniversity. #ISEPAlumni #studyabroad #travel #internationalstudentexchange #collegetourist #studentnomad #wanderlustwednesday #FindYourPark #GrandCanyon #arizona
