Denver has been one of the biggest adventures I have ever taken on. From being 18 hours away from home, living in a big city for the first time, to having an incredible internship. Nothing could have prepared me for this!

Michael Altshuler These past couple of weeks have been crazy trying to get homework assignments finished and turned in while still trying to make the most out of Denver.

Why I Packed My Hiking Boots: Discovering the Heartbeat of Britain
Bueñas Días from Barcelona! I’ve had a fantastic week travelling Spain with Megan Barta, a fellow Hope study-abroader wrapping up her semester in Barcelona.
