DELFT




fall 2023 study abroad


BUT ALSO.  

︎COPENHAGEN.              SWITZERLAND.
ICELAND. LONDON.
PARIS. BARCELONA.





I landed in Amsterdam and made my way to Delft. Soaking in the green grass and mossy canals. On the train there I sat next to a woman who had just moved to the Netherlands from NYC. I wondered If that was a later version of me. 


I ate fried fish at my first Saturday market. It was at time overstimulating but beautiful to see the locals just exist in regular weekend activities. 



School started and I met my classmates that came from all ends of the world. I dressed extra colorful as the days were gloomy but spirits were high.




MUNICH









COPENHAGEN


My favorite city. The architecture, winter swim dips, and streets line with fashionable people on bikes. It was a dream world. 





SWITZERLAND


Cec’s bday weekend in the mountains. It was so serene. The journey there was a bit hectic with the surprise of a cancelled flight. But once I arrived, we took the ferry on the lake and smelled the crisp air. We laughed as we got caught in a crazy rain storm down mt. rigi and shivered as we tried to keep warm. A short but sweet trip.








I found a little cafe in the woods a little bike ride from my apartment. It became my safe space. I will be the first to admit that this chapter brought me low moments. But the surroundings brought peaceful farmland for a breathe of fresh air. I’m thankful for it.




ICELAND

Somehow I ended up going to Iceland with 3 aussie boys. I was nervous but mostly ESTATIC. Iceland was top of my bucket list and it did not let me down. Its hard to put into words so I will let the pictures speak for itself. The most epic adventure with many hot dogs and inside jokes.


LONDON






My family came to see me. I needed them.
The trip was insightful, beautiful, and at times stressful.
But they are my favorite company regardless of our tiffs.


PARIS





BARCELONA










I said goodbye to Delft, my trusty orange bike, and all my abroad buddies. Regardless of the hard moments, it didn’t make saying goodbye easier. 


I will always remeber this view. It was along my bike ride to school.
I loved to take in the crisp air and spot any new boats on the canal. 

I’ll miss the big windows, bikes,
and beautiful friendships.
