So one week ago today to be exact two more Rebs came abroad to Prague. Since it was Ole Miss spring break, Marissa Rodrigues and Shelby Shelton decided to take a trip to come visit me. Sorry it wasn’t Destin, but freshman year is long over and Europe’s a tad bit cooler than Luke…

Having the First Moments of Homesickness…
I knew at some point it would come. That feeling where I just want to have the familiar things around me. I really wasn’t expecting it to hit by week 3 but it has. All week I’ve been having bits of homesickness…cravings for sweet tea, wishing I could jump in my car and head to…
London Calling, Emily Answering
Remember me? I know I’ve been on a way too long hiatus from blogging for a bit but I’m back from my travels to London and Italy and back in Amsterdam to spend my last few days saying goodbye to the city that I have fallen in love with and amazing people I’ve met from…
Edinburgh: Wonderful Christmastime
3 posts and y’all are finally caught up. I’m not responsible enough for a blog. Two AMAZING things happened this past week: (1) CHRISTMAS IS OFFICIALLY IN EDINBURGH and (2) MADISON IS OFFICIALLY IN EDINBURGH. Honestly, could it get any better? I think not. I will never try to deny that Christmas is my favorite…
Paris: Or not?
I’m pretty sure I’m studying abroad in Paris, but it’s easy to get confused when I feel like I’m never here. That’s the beauty of studying in Europe, the world is at your fingertips! So far, I’ve been able to travel to Berlin, Brussels, London, Brugge, Barcelona, Vienna, and Amsterdam. I still have Dublin and…
Spain: San Sebastian Film Festival
This past weekend, some of the other students and I made the hour long bus trip to San Sebastian (or “Donostia” if you prefer its Basque name) for the 62nd International Film Festival. After everyone arrived around 9 AM, we decided to explore the city a bit before we caught a movie that afternoon. One…
Easter Break: Headed to London
The Spring Break here in Switzerland is actually a week off for Easter. I’ve been going stir crazy, waiting for the break to come, especially after seeing pictures and stores from my friends at home during their break. It was worth the wait. I booked a trip with two of my neighbors and one of…
Nice is Nice
While all of my friends spent their spring break lounging on the beaches in Florida or taking advantage of all inclusive resorts in Mexico, I was stuck where the weather was not as warm. However, I refused to allow the lack of sunshine ruin my spring break. My friends and I decided to get out of…
Australia: Weekends away
Since I am officially on the tail end of this amazing adventure abroad, it has become a top priority to see what the rest of the country can show me. Although I absolutely love everything Sydney has to offer, from its fast paced city life to the numerous, relaxing beaches scattered at every corner, I decided that…
La vie en France: Début
It’s been almost a week since I’ve been in France, and it still doesn’t feel real. I flew out of Memphis with another student and had plans to meet up with three other Ole Miss students in Miami to fly together. Unfortunately, the ice delayed their flights, but I was lucky to have a friend…
