Top 6 Places To Go If You Are Studying Abroad

In This Article:

From being an EU citizen and as I am currently studying abroad, I have had experiences throughout Europe. These are the places that are must-sees if you find you have a weekend free.

1. Lake Como, Italy

In very northern Italy lies Lake Como that contains the most amazing scenery. Coming during warmer months is more ideal as you can go swimming and travel by boat across the lake. You can also George Clooney's house from the lake.

2. Split, Croatia

The second largest city in Croatia, Split has not only beautiful beaches but also has ruins of ancient Rome. Croatia is also not a major destination for American tourists, which makes it more relaxing.

3. Amsterdam, Netherlands

Amsterdam is a beautiful city and also contains lots of historic sites. There is the Anne Frank House, the Van Gogh Museum, and so much more. They also have their famous coffee shops that attract many college age kids.

4. Ibiza, Spain

There is no better time to travel to Ibiza then while studying abroad. It's most likely one of your only opportunities to go. Obviously, there are crazy clubs there but there are also beautiful beaches, so definitely go when it's warmer out. It is an experience that you will not want to miss.

5. Paris, France

This is probably on everyone's list, but I believe that given the opportunity one has to go to Paris. It is a breathtaking city with things to do around every corner. The food is also amazing!

6. Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is filled with art and architecture. It is the most visited city in Spain, so there will be a lot of tourists but it is still definitely worth the visit. Barcelona is also known for having extremely fun clubs. It would also be fun to watch a soccer game while you are in Barcelona, as they have extremely rowdy soccer fans.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
