It’s been almost 3 years now since my last blog post and there’s a lot ground to cover. I studied abroad at The American Business School of Paris for 3 semesters. I arrived in Paris on January 22nd, 2013 and returned to San Francisco on August 22nd, 2014. While I was living in Paris, I had the opportunity to travel to 22 cities in 11 different countries. Studying abroad was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life so far. Not only did a once unfamiliar city become my second home, but I was able to make great friendships and travel. I returned from living abroad with a different perspective from the exposure to different cultures and learning from every experience I had. I couldn’t be more grateful for all of the adventures and I’m looking forward to making more travel memories. Below are pictures of all of my trips during my time living in Paris.
- Versailles (Château de Versailles), France – February 3rd, 2013 (day trip)

If you’re ever in a position where you are able to study abroad or travel for a long period of time, I highly recommend that you pursue the opportunity. Living abroad has greatly impacted my life for the better. As of now, I am living in San Francisco and will begin documenting my trips again. Thank you for reading.
