My Top 5 Tips for a First Time London Traveler
I just recently came home from my very first solo trip to London. This was my very first trip internationally by myself and I was excited but absolutely TERRIFIED. There is a big difference in getting lost or navigating your own city and navigating somewhere completely different. And in a whole new country no less. Here are a few things I've been able to reflect on now that I have arrived home safely. Hopefully, these 5 tips will help quell some nerves of other first time travelers!

Help! It's My First Time Living in a University Dorm!
So, it's your first time living away from home! If you're anything like me, University was my first time living without my parents. Before university I had seldom gone a day without seeing at least one parent, so when I decided I would be going to a university out of my home city it was a completely new experience for me. Now that I'm in my 7th year, I've been able to reflect upon my time living in a first year dorm and share some helpful (I hope) tips with you!

When Your Roommate Has PetsTop Story - April 2018
You may be wondering, "what's wrong with living with animals? Those ones are sooooo cute!" And... You'd be right. They are very cute...and also not mine. I've never had a pet of my own. My family traveled a lot when I was in school and we just didn't have time for a pet, as much as I wanted one. During university, I lived mostly on campus which didn't allow pets until this past year. In September, I moved in with two girls, one who I knew and one who I did not. Both were lovely people who had pets, two of which are pictured here. Now, over my four months there, I learned a lot of things about living with pets, and moreover, living with pets that are not yours. Now there are a lot of pros to having pets. Science has proven that animals help us calm down and reduce stress, however, these adorable hell-spawn tended to cause more stress than I cared to have.
