About Me

Hi friends,

Welcome to The Wandering Woman, a travel blog about the semester I am spending studying aboard at St. Marys University in London, England.  My home university is Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I am from little old Dayton Ohio so I am quite a distance from home. But I am thankfully not alone. Joining me on this amazing journey are six other AQ students. Together, we are the largest international group from one university. The crazy part is this is the very first group Aquinas has ever sent over. It has been a process crossing the pond but we are here finally!

While in London, I will be taking classes towards my sports management degree back home and having an internship with the London Scottish, a local football (rugby) club. When I am not in the classroom or on the pitch, I will be wandering around London, the rest of the British Isles and Continental Europe looking for the best coffee, pastries, and pubs in the world! 

I am looking forward to having you join me and my fellow classmates on this once in a lifetime experience!

Cheers!
