Title: Kioni Paniyiri (Town Festival) - Greece
Date: 2014
Description: Our last official evening together as a group landed on the very special evening - Kioni's Paniyiri or town festival. A stage was built, the dancing circle cleared, food prepared, and lots of seating for the bustling, wildly entertaining evening of feasting on great food, dancing with the whole town, and laughing together. It was a wonderful way to say goodbye to the little village that we all fell in love with and to each other, after forming a close-knit bond in a short amount of time.

Title: Trevor, Junior, and Steve - Kenya
Date: 2014
Description: In Kochia, Kenya the main focus of my study abroad trip was to build relationships, little did I know the strongest relationships I built were with these three boys. Everyday while walking to the Secondary all girls school, they would walk with me and ask me how my day was and in return I asked them and gave them a ride or two on my shoulders. The most valuable thing I learned from them was that I did not have to seek to discover local culture. While they couldn't communicate in English, I discovered what it truly meant to be Kenyan through them: to love, to take initiative, and practice compassion.

Title: Duomo on a Foggy Morning - Florence, Italy
Date: 2014
Description: Almost every morning for 8 months I would walk past the Duomo in Florence to go to class. The Duomo, a massive Cathedral that looms over the city like a giant fist, casts it's shadow and impression on all that visit Florence. Needless to say, it is hardly ever without tourists surrounding its glistening marble walls. This photo was taken on a foggy morning that I had to wake up at 4 am to catch a bus, and there was not a single other person in Piazza Del Duomo. As I rushed to catch the bus I momentarily looked up to see the giant structure looking back at me. I felt small but peaceful as the shutter from my camera echoed across the stone. It was a moment I will not forget.

Title: Green City - Tokyo, Japan
Date: 2019
Description: The Imperial Palace Garden in the middle of Tokyo. It really struck me how in such a huge, dense urban city as Tokyo could have these pockets of nature. It was really quiet and peaceful in the park, but you could still look up and see tall buildings in any direction. I really admired the respect for nature and allowing room for these green spaces.

Title: Parque Güell - Barcelona, Spain
Date: 2014
Description: This picture was taken at Parque Güell in Barcelona, Spain. This was a particularly inspiring moment for me because I had heard about the amazing architecture by Antoni Gaudí for years, but I was finally there, experiencing it in person! From this viewpoint, we could watch the sunrise over Barcelona and see the ocean, the construction of La Sagrada Familia, and see all the intricate detailing put into Parque Güell. It was truly amazing!

Description: Gyeongbukgung Palace is centered in the heart of the city where visitors can take in the beautiful architecture and scenery of the palace grounds while also being dressed in traditional Korean style hanboks. Being able to walk around such a historic site in such beautiful clothes was such an incredible experience and truly felt like we were experiencing a moment in time of life in the Joseon dynasty.

Title: Insignificance - Interlaken, Switzerland
Date: 2019
Description: This photo was taken on a hike through the mountains in Lauterbrunnen. The feeling of insignificance is a very humbling experience and this was one of those moments. When I went to Switzerland I had only been abroad a month and around this time I was going through the normal waves of culture shock where I was starting to miss home. Switzerland was a place that gave me a refresh of home, the smell of fresh air and rain, being surrounded by mountains and complete beauty grounded me. It helped me feel connected to home even though I was far from it. Switzerland holds a special place in my heart because it came when I needed it most. This photo was taken in a moment where I knew I would come back to Switzerland someday. It's unfathomable how mountains and nature that beautiful exist. Although I may have seemed insignificant to the towering mountains, the mountains will always be significant to me.

Title: Double Rainbow Kitchen Superteam Go! - India
Date: 2014
Description: I spent the summer of 2014 completing a health education internship at Jhamtse Gatsal Children's Community, outside of Lumla in Arunachal Pradesh, India. One of my duties was to create a list of observations and suggestions for the community regarding the improvement of kitchen sanitation. I started my observations by volunteering an extra set of hands to help make dinner for the community. I ended up loving my time with the kitchen staff so much that I was regularly hanging out in the kitchen and peeling potatoes or grinding garlic for thukpa (thick Tibetan-style vegetable noodle soup) several nights a week. This photo is of Sharda, me, Kalu, and Rajiv (left to right), part of the kitchen "superteam" posing in front of a double rainbow outside of the kitchen at Jhamtse Gatsal.

Title: Window - Cappadocia, Turkey
Date: 2014
Description: This photo was taken in Cappadocia, Turkey, home to perhaps the largest underground city in the world, home and hiding place to some of the first Christians. Their structures were reminiscent of ant hills. This particular picture was taken in a "castle", built into a hillside, it had a watch tower/window that required a precarious climb up a crumbling staircase as well as multiple churches in its core.

Date: 2014
Description: Bellingham is known for having beautiful sunsets. Getting to see the oranges, yellows, and reds arrayed across the sky is one of my favorite parts of going to school up here. So when I got to see this beautiful sight while in Florence, I was reminded of my "Belling-home" and how much I love the world we live in. Even halfway around the world you can find the peace and beauty of home.

Description: This picture was taken in Lujan, Argentina. This was the second year Lujan did the Lujan Flota event where there was music, good food and games for the whole family to enjoy. The main part of this event, however, was the many hot air balloons that people were able to see up close, some even letting people get aboard for a little bit! I am pictured here in front of a hot air balloon that has "Lujan" written on it, everything here is named after the Lady of Lujan (the patron saint of Argentina), including me!

Title: SakuraSakura - Japan
Date: 2014
Description: One of the things I have dreamed of doing since I started studying Japanese was to go Hanami (literally flower viewing). Hanami involves going to the park and sitting under the beautiful cherry blossoms while enjoying food and drinks with friends and family. To me, cherry blossoms are one of the most aesthetically pleasing things to the eyes. Hanami ususally lasts about a week, and it's so big in Japan that they have blooming forecasts so that you can find out when the cherry blossoms are at their peak. It's times like these when I wish I actually had a real camera, as even this photo does not capture the true beauty of the cherry blossoms I saw that day.

It was the first weekend in the program and I was still trying to get to know people but it really felt like I had bonded with my new friends that weekend and it was where I knew I was going to have a great time here by myself. I liked the background of it as well because you can see the giant beautiful Chateau in the background as well as the gold figures in the fountain. It really captures how incredible that place is.

Title: The Edge of Catastrophe - Poas Volcano, Costa Rica
Date: 2019-09-14
Description: Poas Volcano is one of Costa Rica's most active volcanoes. I have always been fascinated by the ecosystems surrounding volcanoes, so shortly into the semester I took the opportunity to visit. Poas had been closed for a couple of years due to volcanic activity. The national park was opened for about two months before it erupted once more, a week after I had visited. Seeing an active volcano made me realize the fragility and dependence of life on the environment.

Everything around me was so stunning and I was glad to have my little bottle of barley tea along with me.

Description: This picture was taken in Granada, Spain, where I think I learned the most! This was probably the most important city for us, because it is the very city that Christopher Columbus received permission from Isabel and Ferdinand to set sail to go to India; which obviously he ended up in what is now the United States of America! This picture was taken from way up in The Alhambra, which is a giant Moorish castle from the 11th century. Absolutely breathtaking.

Description: This was the moment after the Sevilla team scored a goal and they all huddled together to celebrate. Fútbol is a prominent sport within Spain but the true beauty of going to a soccer game in Sevilla is the sense of community it brings. At the time I went to the game I had only been abroad for a month and a half and was still learning when it came to my spanish and overall culture, I still felt like an outsider. But coming to a soccer game, hearing the chants and screams of the families in the crowds made everyone rooting for Sevilla in that stadium a family. When we got that goal and the whole stadium erupted, we were all one, we were united.

Often times people can stay in a Jimjilbang for as long as you want as it is seen as a relaxing stay away from the stress of daily life. We had traditional sweet rice drinks, wore matching pajama-style outfits, ate traditional Korean food, and experienced all of the different rooms available which ranged from an ice room to a room that was over 180 degrees Fahrenheit. I will say that after staying at the sauna, I have never felt so relaxed and my skin felt incredible.
