It's fast approching, departure date. Closer than ever. This semester flew by. I didn't update the blog much, but I figured school this semester was boring. Just more class, more work, more things to do that were just routine.


But that's ALL about to change.


January 4th is not only a new year, but the start an epic adventure.Study Abroad in Sophia Annapolis, France (30 minutes outside Nice on the Riveria) at SKEMA Business School. My coursework in engineering will continue, along with some business classes, and trips on the weekends to the many opportunities Europe has to offer.


To give a taste, and while it may be ambitious, the weekend traveling, spring break, and two weeks at the end of the semester include (but are not limited to!):





That's the list for now. I will be keeping an extensive journal with me, and will update my blog much much much more periodically to keep in touch and share my travels when I return to my trusty laptop at are cozy apartment in Antibes, France, pictured below.



More to come, especially as Katie and I near departure. Katie is my best friend slash study abroad partner slash traveling companion, and I would be lost without her. You can follow her experiences on her blog: http://www.kolormekatie.blogspot.com/


I look forward to hearing from you all, and please get Skype as I would love to communicate while I am out of the States. I return May 19th, 2010, and then it's off to Erie, Pennsylvania for my internship with General Electric, Transportation.


It's shaping up to be a wonderful year. Happy Holidays!
