Some people have this fantasy or idea that study abroad is just “partying, sleeping, traveling, and eating” sorry to ruin the illusion, but school is a large chunk of the study abroad experience. This week is mid-terms week, for a majority of my courses which means busy (but not as stressful as you might imagine).
I’m surrounded by wonderful coffee shops and pastries to keep me motivated. Instead of feeling mad about the work, I’ve been able to see the milk-carton blue sky and just be happy to take breaks walking through the cobblestone constructed lanes. (sorry no pastry pics, needed a sugar rush faster than the photographic evidence)

no, the clouds aren’t painted
