Going abroad or not going abroad that is the question! It is hard to know whether going abroad and living in a new place is the right choice to do. I was able to sit down with a student who went abroad and here is what she had to say!

Kendall (K): Where did you go abroad

Nali (N): Barcelona

K: Why did you go

N: I went because I never had the opportunity to travel out of the country (outside of SRS) and wanted to experience living on my own in a new place. I chose Barcelona specifically because of how culturally rich the city was, and I needed some warm weather and beaches after a semester in Hamilton.

K: Favorite part about going abroad

N: Trying new foods I had never had before, particularly paella in Barcelona and getting to sip wine with 3 of my best friends in front of the Eiffel tower

K: Favorite place you traveled while abroad

N: Capri, Italy was the most breathtaking place I have ever been

K: Favorite restaurant

N: Da Greco! a pasta restaurant in Barcelona (frequented by Beyoncé and Jay z) where you can BYOB and get sooooo much pasta

K: Would you recommend the place you visited to other students

N: I would fully recommend Barca to other students! It has it all. The night life, the culture, the weather, the food. Best decision of my life.

Colgate
My name is Meghan and I am very excited to be Colgate's Campus Correspondent! I am a junior at Colgate and a Sociology major. My hometown is Manhattan Beach, California, and Colgate is such an amazing and special place to me (despite getting used to the brutal winters)! I love social media, writing, and photography, and can't wait to share all of the events, trending topics, and news happening at Colgate this coming semester!
