Storytellers of the World

For those of you who don't know, I work in Bradley's Study Abroad office. My #1 purpose in my position is to talk with students who are looking to study abroad and give them insight on the programs we offer as well as share my stories. Honestly, if I could make this my career, I would in a heart beat. Once I start, it is hard for me to stop. People find love in different things, people, places, and I most definitely fell in love with traveling and the world.

I liked the picture and the quote because when I'm traveling, I am filled with so many emotions and I am usually over joyed it leaves me speechless. When this happens, I take it all in, snap a picture, and make sure at some point in the day to write down what I did and how it made me feel. I kept a blog while studying in London and I also blogged during this past J-Term in Paris (for Bradley). I am glad I did both of these because my memories are written down and I am able to relate back to them when giving advice or simply when I'm going through nostalgia.

Traveling has made me a story teller and one day I hope to create my own story for everyone to read.

    What an awesome job! I would love to be able to share my experiences and advice, and end up helping people in the process. I've always wanted to study abroad (I couldn't because of softball), but looks like I'll just have to go somewhere on vacation after I graduate :) Thanks for sharing!

    My one regret in college was not studying abroad! Granted it wasn't the easiest thing for me to do with my volleyball schedule, but I wish I could've fit it in somewhere. I would LOVE to go to Italy or Ireland. Traveling is so great, teaches you so much about yourself!

    I think this is so true. Nothing beats being abroad and spending time in a place that is completely foreign to you. You learn what you're interested in and you learn so much about culture. It is one thing to open a book and read about something but it is completely different being able to tell someone about your unique experience. Truly a treasure of being in college and having the freedom to learn something so important.
