The Beginning of a Journey

Hello! Let’s play a little guessing game.  What does Sherlock, Harry Potter, the Queen, and I all have in common?  That’s right, we all belong in England!  I’m starting this blog in preparation to go on the Legendary London Centre study abroad program in England this summer.  Having that said, starting this isn’t just about starting a blog, it’s about starting a journey.  To set the stage, we’re going to be living in London for about 7 weeks, where we’ll be learning about British History and Politics, and traveling throughout the U.K to experience it firsthand.  What a journey that will be! Here I’ll be recording my adventures, and my thoughts and insights about what I’ll be learning.  It'll be interesting to learn more about current happenings in the UK, and living in this pivotal period with Brexit.  Also, in order to make this experience the best it can be, I’ve created a bucket list of things I want to do.  Such items will include the stereotypical, yet still amazing things like seeing a Shakespeare play at the Globe theater or visiting Buckingham Palace, or things as simple as trying a kebab or fish and chips.   I’m excited to share this with you, and I hope you enjoy reading about my adventures.
