In a few months I will be studying abroad in Greece, and I could not be more excited. Greece is a land steeped in ancient traditions, cultures and \u00a0history. One of my favorite classes was the study of Ancient Greece. I loved learning about the myths and legends of Greek gods and to be standing on the same soil where stories of Athena , Artemis and Demeter were created would be an awesome experience. Although many of the temples and ancient structures are now in ruins, I think just seeing them will bring to life those ancient stories.<\/p>\n

I have always wanted to go there and was\"studying<\/a> thrilled to learn that not only was I accepted to the class, but had also won the scholarship that would allow me to finally visit and see Greece came to live. When I found out I got a scholarship I got so excited, I got my luggage down from the attic and started to pack it. I then realized it would be a few months before I would need to pack, and I don’t even know what to pack.<\/p>\n

I confess. I love trying Greek food here in America, and can\u2019t wait to sample \u00a0authentic food. I want to see not only the monuments, but also experience today’s\u00a0 Greek culture.I have already started researching the different types of foods and customs from the country, and I am even trying to learn some of the language. Suffice to say I am not speaking like a native yet, but as everyday passes the more excited I get. I give my heartfelt thanks for the scholarship that is allowing me to go on a new adventure and the opportunity of a lifetime. \u00a0Everyone should aspire to see and participate in different cultures, it can alter your views and form new ideas of how to deal with obstacles in your life.<\/p>\n

Thank You and I look forward studying abroad in Greece and sharing my experience with others when I return.<\/p>\n
