Wonderful Study Abroad London!
This London Study Abroad Program was everything I hoped it to be. I enjoyed the classes and the assignments. The instructors were knowledgeable, approachable and open to suggestions. There was just enough free time that I was able to visit surrounding areas and exhibits that were not included in the trip. One of these was the M.C. Escher exhibit at the Somerset House. Another activity was a visit to the Canal Museum that included a trip on a canal barge. Afterward I walked along the towpath and saw art for sale on boats moored there, talked with locals and took photos. We saw a David Hockney exhibit and a Christo exhibit. I was also able to take a Chunnel trip to Paris where I made a side trip to visit Monet's Garden in Giverney to see the water lilies in bloom. We visited the Tower of London, and Kew Gardens that also featured Henry Moore sculptures. Food was very good. Since we could shop in local grocery stores and prepare meals at the dorm, out of pocket expenses were not much more than at home. My fellow students were friendly, interesting and open to new experiences! Many watched FIFA matches at local pubs.
