Hello friends! My name is Susanna and I am a second year student at the University of Oregon. I am majoring in Spanish and Political Science and am loving it. Studying a second language and learning about a different culture outside of my own is so important to me. It gives a new perspective on the world and a deeper understanding of humanity as a whole. Political Science has given me an invaluable opportunity to really understand the mechanics of how the world is run and what our role and impact in the system can be. With the time I have outside of classes, studying, clubs, and volunteering I enjoy reading novelas and learning new hair-styling techniques (my random hobby!). Interesting fact: I live in Oregon, but I love sunny weather more than anything and I think coffee is gross (what am I even doing here, right!?). read more

Study abroad in San Cristobal de las Casas, Mexico

I am excited to announce that I have been accepted to study in San Cristobal de las Casas in Chiapas, Mexico this summer! I will be taking courses in Maya culture, as well as participating in a Service Learning project with a student attending the local university. It is an exciting opportunity and I am grateful for any amount of support, monetary or otherwise.
