Hello and Bonjour! I'm Alex, a 4th year architectu Hello and Bonjour! I'm Alex, a 4th year architecture major here at SU. In the Fall of 2022, I had the wonderful opportunity to take a class trip to Paris during my semester abroad in London.This #flashbackfriday highlights different experiences across my two-night stay in the city. As an architecture student, Paris was abundant with beautiful buildings both new and old. I saw multiple projects that we have seen referenced in our textbooks and lectures since my first year including the Centre Pompidou, Villa La Roche, and the Arab World Institute with its beautiful mechanized facade system. To be able to move through these buildings and experience them with my own eyes was a priceless experience. That being said though, I saw many many beautiful things all around me that I have never heard of before. Paris was abundant with art from its streets to its buildings, from its museums to its music clubs and bars.Be sure to keep your eyes open as you explore as there are beautiful and intriguing things all around you when you travel, sometimes in unexpected places. alexgordonvt
Marhaba! I am Christian, and I am a current Junio Marhaba!  I am Christian, and I am a current Junior from eastern CT! I study geography and social studies education while at SU. This semester, I am studying abroad in Amman, Jordan through SU’s World Partner Amideast program! It has been an amazing time so far without a doubt!Amman’s world partner program is a language intensive experience focused on Arabic language gains and building cultural consciousness of Muslim majority Arab communities, particularly in the Levant. Here, I am taking elective courses related to geography, political science, and women and gender studies. I also have daily classes in Modern Standard Arabic and Levantine Dialect Arabic! As a student in the School of Education, I have learned the importance of becoming a culturally sustaining educator. With this, I am driven to learn Arabic in order to better connect with my Arabic-speaking students, which is why I am studying abroad in Amman! I am very excited to show you what I experience on the daily here in Amman through a story takeover! Stay tuned and make sure to check it out!suschoolofed amideastjordan

Buongiorno! I’m Maureen and I’m a junior from Buongiorno! I’m Maureen and I’m a junior from Buffalo, NY. This semester I am studying architecture in Florence, Italy and it’s been an absolutely amazing time! One of the reasons I chose SU for architecture was the fact that study abroad semesters are built into the curriculum, so I’ve been excited to go abroad for years. I picked Florence specifically because of the opportunity to learn a new language and be immersed in a culture of amazing food, art, and of course, architecture.I have loved every second of living in Florence so far, so I’m so excited to be able to bring you with me on a day in my life! Be sure to check it out! 😊
#MeetAnAmbassadorMonday Hi everyone! My name is B #MeetAnAmbassadorMondayHi everyone! My name is Brooke Fiedler and I am a senior studying Finance and Business Analytics. Last Spring, I had the amazing opportunity to study abroad in Madrid, Spain.My time in Madrid was an unforgettable experience. At first, I fell in love with the beautiful architecture and vibrant, welcoming culture. I soon found that the delicious cuisine, dynamic night life, and friends I would come to make made me never want to leave! I chose to become a Global Ambassador because this period of my life was immensely transformational for me. I wanted to encourage other students and provide inspiration to tackle this life-changing opportunity. If you're considering studying abroad, feel free to message me. I could talk about it forever. brookefiedler

My name is Sam Brady Cestari, and I studied abroad My name is Sam Brady Cestari, and I studied abroad in Madrid, Spain in the Fall 2019 semester. At the time, I was getting my bachelor's degree in finance from the Whitman School, with minors in psychology, economics, and sport analytics. Now, I'm a master's student in the Public Diplomacy and Global Communications program, a partnership between Maxwell and Newhouse. I'm also pursuing a certificate of advanced study in Latin American and Caribbean Studies.In Madrid, I lived with a Spanish woman named Susana. Susana spoke some English but preferred to speak Spanish in the house, so I decided to go all-in on language learning. We would eat dinner together most nights, and she would tell me about Spanish culture and politics. Susana's son, Marco, would stop in for lunch a few times a week. Marco had studied abroad in Buffalo, NY in high school so his English was perfect. I learned a lot from our conversations about Spanish history and life for young people in Spain.My favorite class at the SU-Madrid center was cross-cultural psychology. Our professor would start every Tuesday class with an opportunity to voice occasions of culturally-induced confusion from the past week. He would proceed to explain the societal norms and related psychological concepts tied to our experience. Between Susana and this course, I learned a lot about how Spanish people think.It is amazing to have come full circle, from studying abroad to learning about educational exchange programs as part of countries' public diplomatic efforts. Beyond the language and cultural learning, I developed meaningful relationships with Spanish people - connections that I will hold in my heart for as long as I live.If you haven't studied abroad, I urge you to consider it, as it is a truly life-changing experience.#MeetAnAmbassadorMonday
Hi! I’m Alexis and I’m a senior studying publi Hi! I’m Alexis and I’m a senior studying public relations at SU. I studied abroad during my Spring 2022 semester in London!For today’s #flashbackfriday, I’m going to highlight one of my favorite places in London: Notting Hill! This neighborhood has the iconic colorful blocks of flats, the amazing Portobello Road Market, and The Notting Hill Bookshop from the classic movie. I had the best time eating from the food stands, finding some vintage pieces, and getting some handmade jewelry. Although it gets super crowded, it’s a can’t-miss part of London! On my last day abroad, I was walking around Notting Hill teary-eyed because I didn’t want to leave such a beautiful place.London is filled with so many unique spots and you have to check out this one during your time abroad!
