Welcome to My Travel Blog!

Hello Family & Friends,

Thank you for visiting my travel blog! I am currently working on board the "The Scholar Ship" study abroad program. The Scholar Ship is a floating university of students, faculty, and staff from around the world, traveling by ship to the following ports:

Voyage 1: Greece, Portugal, Panama, Ecuador, Tahiti, New Zealand, Australia, mainland China, and Hong Kong.

Voyage 2: Hong Kong, mainland China, Thailand, India, Seychelles, South Africa, Cape Verde, Spain, Turkey, Portugal, and Holland.

This is The Scholar Ship's first year, so it's been an intense and exciting experience. I am working as an Intercultural Resident Counselor (IRC) Coordinator for On Board Life (OBL) and have the privilege of co-creating the program with a group of truly talented people.
