Marketing Major
Study Abroad: Lisbon, Portugal
What was one of your favorite classes?  Fundamentals of Management
 
What did you like about your program/university? Despite the language barriers that come along with studying at an international university, I have really enjoyed learning to communicate with fellow students from other places and getting to know them!
 
What was your favorite place that you visited or favorite part about your city? Cascais, Portugal. Cascais is a BEAUTIFUL beach town just about an hour train away from Lisbon. Cascais is home to some of the most beautiful beaches as well as amazing shops and restaurants.
 
What advice would you give to the 2022 abroad students?  Book as many trips as possible! You can either book in advance or a few days (or even hours) before. Never limit the travel- even when you think it's too much. This is the best absolute opportunity to put yourself out there and get to know new places.
