ParentNet

First off, greetings and welcome to my “ParentNet: A Student Abroad” blog! I am a senior here at Michigan Tech and I will be studying abroad in London, England at Kingston University.

Me: Your blogger/photographer extraordinaire

I chose to study abroad in London partly because of my English and Scottish heritage, but mostly just as an escape from the known. After spending two years in Houghton working towards my bachelors in chemistry I am hoping to find the excitement I crave in this iconic city.

I will be documenting the good, the bad, and the amazing aspects of studying in London while hopefully giving some useful tips along the way for other students thinking about studying abroad. As of now I am waiting on getting my work visa from the British Consulate and as soon as that comes in the mail I will be off! Like most students before me I am going through mixed emotions of excitement, worrying, anticipation, and feeling overwhelmed. Wish me luck!!!

Best

Lauren
