Hey Shitstains, What a whirlwind it has been since we last spoke! For new readers, I went abroad to Paris last semester, and I won’t shut up about it. I traveled across Europe, met incredible people (including Harry Styles), had my apartment robbed, and finished the term a die-hard Francophile. So where does that leave […]
Bonjour Friends, Actually, hello. While I arrived at Charles de Gaulle as a girl in an “I Heart NY” tee, I leave as a woman in a beret. To my dismay, my return to the United States of America has arrived. Shameless plug for the Harvard Office of International Education (your girl is *officially* an […]

Anyway, welcome to this week’s edition of “Abreast on Abroad.” In my last letter, I discussed how my decision to “cross the pond” ultimately hinged on the ability to wander the world. What can I say? I dreamed of becoming the next insta-travel-baddie and […]
To whom it may concern in the Harvard vicinitas, Greetings from the beautiful city of Paris, also known as my home for the rest of the spring semester. How’s Cambridge? Don’t answer that.
