But, what exactly am I doing writing more blogs? <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">GOOD<\/span> question&#8230; I am here to inform you about the <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">world around you<\/span>. After having the opportunity to travel around Europe, I wanted to make sure that I tell you why I think it is so important to travel. Also, \u00a0I want to make sure that you knew studying abroad is an option for you as well!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Now that I have your interest&#8230;\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000\">for my senior project, I will\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000\">be posting blogs about different countries around the world. But, <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">THE<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">BEST PART IS, <span style=\"color: #000000\">that I will also be interviewing the international students on campus!<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000\">They are going to have the opportunity to explain to us more about\u00a0their country and why they think they should visit. They will also provide tips on what to do when you are there, and\u00a0how to really engage in their culture. I will be posting weekly blogs about different countries, and hopefully the blogs will help\u00a0you become more determined to get out and travel the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">Who knows&#8230;. maybe <span style=\"color: #ff0000\">you&#8217;ll become so interested in a country,<\/span>\u00a0that\u00a0 it will inspire you to want to study abroad there! That would be really awesome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">SO stay tuned because next week will be the first official blog!!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">OHH and if you want to know more about my experience abroad, make sure that you come to my presentation on Thursday, April 13th!
