Sanibonani! My name is Toyin Green (@_t.green_12 ) Sanibonani! My name is Toyin Green (@_t.green_12 ), and I am currently studying abroad in Durban, South Africa in SIT’s International Relations in the Global South program! I’m a junior triple majoring in Political Philosophy, Health Humanities, and Law, Society, and Policy, with a minor in Public Health. 

I came to South Africa to learn more about the anti-apartheid movement, how social movements are sustained, and the contemporary issues in post-colonial societies. SIT: IR in the Global South is a unique program that immerses you in each part of society. Whether it’s the different homestays, speaking to key leaders and voices from the struggle (tune in for this lore fr), traveling across the country and to others, or the excursions, the program makes sure you gain a thorough understanding of the beauties and struggles of South Africa’s past, present, and future. 

Come along for a takeover to see what a day studying abroad in South Africa is like. Trust me you won’t regret it - this program is unique compared to the others and you’ll get some advice and insight into the beauties of Durban and SIT.

Hola! 🇨🇱 ✨ My name is Juliana Rosa! I’ Hola! 🇨🇱 ✨ 

My name is Juliana Rosa! I’m from San Juan, Puerto Rico and I’m a junior majoring in communication sciences & disorders (Speech-Language Pathology) in the College of Art & Sciences (@suartsciences & @syracusecsd )

I am currently studying abroad in Santiago, Chile (@syracuseusantiago). I came to Chile because I wanted to learn and experience other Latin American cultures and histories. The SU Santiago program is a close-knit and immersive program through which I have learned about many things, including the impact of the various dictatorships in South America. Additionally, through this program, I had the incredible opportunity to work with a local clinic, where I gained hands-on experience and insight into how Speech-Language Pathology is practiced in a different cultural and clinical context. 

Come join me on my takeover to get a glimpse of what it’s like to study abroad in Chile—especially during my last week here!  I’ll be sharing moments that made this experience unforgettable.

I’m Beckett Buchman, a Junior studying Business Management in @whitmanatsu and Information Management in @ischoolsu . I’m currently finishing my study abroad semester living among British people at Syracuse London Center and get to share with you guys my experience! @syracuselondon 

I chose London because I wanted to experience Europe in a unique multicultural hub, producing an experience unlike anywhere. Getting to meet local Londoner’s while also speaking to people from all walks of life has been extremely unique and one of my largest highlights of the whole thing. I’m opened my eyes to other cultures and backgrounds and I’m happy to get to share a glimpse of that with you today.

Please tune in for my super sick #takeovertuesday 

Cheers!
Hi! My name is Isabella Atalay and I am a senior s Hi! My name is Isabella Atalay and I am a senior studying real estate and finance. Last spring, I studied abroad in Florence, Italy and it was truly one of the most transformative experiences of my college career. I chose to study in Florence for its rich history and art, and its central location, which made it easy to travel throughout Europe. @syracuseuflorence 

From taking weekend trips to cities like Amsterdam and Istanbul to enjoying sunsets at Piazzale Michelangelo, every day abroad was unique and unforgettable. Some of my most valuable moments came from the unexpected ones, such as getting to know locals and navigating life in a different country. 

I became a Global Ambassador because I wanted to help other students discover the exciting opportunities that come with studying abroad! #meetanambassadormonday
Hello!! My name is Sarah Vallejo, and I am a senio Hello!! My name is Sarah Vallejo, and I am a senior studying Physics and Applied Math. I studied abroad in Summer 2024 in both Florence and London.

For today’s #flashbackfriday, I wanted to share some of my favorite views and places from my time abroad. While in Florence, I had the opportunity to visit so many beautiful nearby cities like Pisa and Venice. In Florence, I spent a lot of time exploring the many museums and trying to find the best view of the city everywhere I went. 

In London, I took several day trips to see Bath, Stonehenge, and (my favorite) Windsor Castle. London’s royal history was so fascinating to me, and I loved touring as many palaces and castles I could or walking around Hyde Park and St. James’s Park to look at Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace respectively. On the weekends, I loved to sit in the parks and read or explore the many markets in London like the famous Portobello Road Market in Nottinghill. 

I had never been to either place before my program, and I fell in love with both cities and cultures for their own unique reasons. They were both so welcoming, fascinating, and beautiful in different ways with plenty of history to keep me entertained for ages. I dream of going back to both cities as soon as I can, and I’m so happy to have spent my last summer in truly magical places. If you have any questions about Florence, London, or the summer programs and general, feel free to reach out to me @sarahvalllejo on Instagram!

Annyeonghaseyo! 👋🇰🇷 My name is Carmela G Annyeonghaseyo! 👋🇰🇷

My name is Carmela Garcia I am a junior studying abroad at Yonsei this semester in Seoul, South Korea! @yonsei_official 
I am an Environmental and Interior Design major with a minor in architecture studying in VPA’s school of design. @su_enviroandinterior @su_vpa 
I chose Korea because of the incredible architecture classes offered here at Yonsei, such as Interior Architecture Studio 3, as well as Building Information Modeling and Design Media. These classes have allowed me to continue improving my software and design skills while abroad. In addition to this, I wanted to learn about the history of Korea through courses such as Modern and Historical Sites as well as Korean Art History, which have allowed me to visit incredible museums and sites here in Seoul. 
I have so far loved my time here, the food is incredible, the people so kind, and the shopping is mind blowing.
Come along for my takeover to see what a day at Yonsei is like!
