We’ve been in London for just over 48 hours and it feels like a week. In the best way possible, of course! We had a bit of a bumpy start, as over half of our study abroad group was not able to arrive until a day later than planned due to weather and flight issues, …

London: Only one tornado, three planes, four airports, and forty hours away!
Currently listening to: “American Boy” by Estelle (ft. Kanye West) After a quick trip (I say not at all sarcastically) I have finally arrived in London! This city is like no other I have ever experienced. It’s what I imagine New York to be like… if New York had nicer people and less trash. Though …

Guys…we’re in London.
‘Ello everybody! I’m in London! But you already knew that. A little less than half of us arrived here on the originally scheduled flight and had to take the tube to the hotel. I’ve been to London before, but I had partially forgotten certain things about the tube. I remembered to tap in and tap …
The Tube
After a somewhat stressful journey we have finally arrived in London! Already I have noticed some very interesting cultural differences, although some of these may be less about the country and more about the environment of a very large city, which I am not familiar with.

Oh London, how I love you
I actually cannot believe that I am writing my first London blog post. I have been looking forward to this trip for months and I can’t believe I’m finally here. Because of all of the travel debacle of our group getting separated, I became a part of the Dallas Eight, as Shawn has lovingly called …
My Time in the Tube
My introduction to the tube was not what we originally intended. Due to storms in Fayetteville Sarah and I (the grad students) along with 6 undergrad students were the only ones who made it to Heathrow on the originally scheduled flight. The rest of our crew had 40 hours of additional travel that they fought …
Hello, London!
What a whirlwind first couple of days in London! It started with a bit of a fiasco. Over half of our group got stuck stateside due to weather delays, but I was one of the lucky few who made it onto the original flight. Since not everyone had made it across the pond (and neither …
Through Jet Lag and Tube Lines: My First Days in London
Hello, everyone! After a 38-hour journey, we finally made it to London. My first thought as we stepped off the plane was a huge sigh of relief; I was so excited. The whole bus ride to our hotel, The Royal National Hotel, I was staring out the window, wanting to take it all in. I …

BLOG POST 1!!!!! MY THOUGHTS SO FAR!!!!!
The first group to arrive in London got a bit of tube experience as soon as we hit the ground here. As we didn’t have our coach like we planned, we opted to take the tube from Heathrow to our hotel. At first, I was nervous about it, as I’ve heard the tube can be …
