The World Is Your Oyster! - Madrid, Spain
-
Date
-
2014
-
Description
-
This photo was taken in Madrid, Spain. It was the beginning of my and fellow WWU student Keely Hausken's backpacking adventure, after both of our study abroad programs had finished. Backpacking taught us so many lessons about spontaneity and self-sufficiency, and was an absolutely amazing experience.

Last Sunrise over the City

Description

This was taken on the morning before I left to come back to the United States. The sunrise over the vast city nestled in the valley of the Himalayas was an image I'll never forget, so I wanted to carry proof that I was there. I didn't take a lot of selfie's on this trip (spending 30 days in a tent without running water will make the prospect less exciting) but here was a place I knew I would return to.

They say experience is the best teacher. That's why I let our guide put a spider, one of many Amazonian species we were learning about on a night walk, on me. They can't say I wasn't trying to learn!

Phang Nga - Thailand

Description

This is Yai Jem, a Thai grandma who inspired me in many ways. Despite losing much of her and her husbands belongings in a tsunami in 2004, she was constantly making sure I was fed, OK, happy, whatever I needed she made sure I had three. I felt the love she had to share with those around her, she did this for everyone, she made sure everyone had their food before she helped herself.

Musica Sin Fronteras

Description

This picture was taken in Buenos Aires, Argentina, outside of Club de Musica. In it is me with my groupmates and professor of the course. While attending Universidad de Palermo I took an events planning course where we learned how to plan all types of different events and even got to put on our own at the end of the semester. My groupmates and I decided to put on a music festival in a small local bar called "Musica Sin Fronteras" and the money we raised by selling tickets was donated to "Voluntarios Sin Fronteras", an organization that provides local kids with sport and art related activities as well as school supplies where needed.

This photo is of me and a group of children living in the village of Andasibe. Every night they would gather there and play soccer and sing songs until the sun set. The children loved us and often gave us makeovers, consisting mainly of intricate hairdos.

City Bell, Argentina

Description

This picture was taken in City Bell, Argentina. It is the town that my mother grew up in before moving to the United States at 16. Today we still have family living there and I am pictured with my great aunt Blanca, who I surprised when I showed up at her doorstep after not seeing her for five years. She could not believe I had come all that way to study and live so near to her (I'm an hour train ride away). It was hard to keep the secret since it took months of planning but it was worth it!

Jimjil-bangin

Description

We visited a traditional Korean style sauna equipped with everything you could ever need. 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.
