The weather in England is something I have never felt before because it is hot, cold, and windy at the same time. It is 30 degrees colder back home and the grey skies of London made me feel like I was not on Earth anymore, and that is my metaphor for why study abroad is important. You need to get out of your comfort zone and be a global person, no matter where you are on Earth.<\/p>\n
Everyone I know who has been to London told me that this is just the original Boston and that it didn’t feel as European as the rest of the continent. They are wrong. They drive on the other side of the road, the currency sizes and amounts make no sense in a practical, design sense, and the store hours have minds of their own. Yes, it is commercial here and diversity is prevalent\u00a0like home, but London is far older than Boston and sometimes something as small as a word can open something you hadn’t thought about before.<\/p>\n
