Study Abroad & Davis Q’s!

What made you decide to Study Abroad/ choose this specific program?

I chose this specific program since it included an internship and it was in the heart of English literature. I love that I can go visit Charles Dickens house on a whim!

What has been your favorite part about London so far?

Being able to wake up and know I have so much history at my finger tips!

Is there anything you miss about Davis?

Making friends with people and their dogs! You don’t see many dogs in such a big city.

What made you choose the English major?

My Sophomore and Junior years of high school were the years I fell in love with English because of the my classes and the way they were taught.

What would be your post-graduation dream job?

I would love to work for a publishing company!

Fun Questions!

First thought you had this morning?

If I don’t wake up in the next five minutes, I will have to run from my tube stop to the office.

If you could travel back in time, where would you go and what would you do?

I would go back to the beginning of this year and make friends with the people I saw on the bus every morning so that way we weren’t always awkwardly aware that we saw each other all the time, but didn’t become friends.

Food you are craving most from home?

Legit Mexican food.

Last thing that made you mad?

I didn’t charge my phone last night, which meant I couldn’t listen to my music on the way to work. My commute is long so it helps pass the time.

What would your dream date be?

Anything that involves food and adventure.

Lightning Round!
