One of our #HogsAbroad student bloggers had this to say about her time studying ecology in Scotland:
Before I left for Scotland, my mom told me that my life was about to
change and I would be a different person when I got back. It sounds a
bit dramatic, as my mom can often be (sorry mom, I love you, please pick
me up from the airport tomorrow), but it really was true. I left for
Scotland knowing that I was about to have an amazing experience, but I
never would have been able to predict how immensely this trip would
change me. I met people from far away places that I would have otherwise
never had the privilege of knowing.
I was allowed this amazing
opportunity to learn more about my field of study and I got to
experience this entire other world while doing it. In these past four
weeks I have never laughed so hard, felt so out of my element, worked so
hard, or tried so many new things. My study abroad experience was much
more than just a different place to learn skills that will help me in my
career. I thoroughly believe that every person you meet and every place
you go leaves a mark on you that inevitably changes you. I am honored
to say that Bonnie Scotland and my wonderful ecology group have left a
mark on me.
