My Next Adventure

Halo! First of all, I want to say congratulations to all of the YES Abroad finalists for 2016-2017! I wish you all the best on your upcoming journeys. Enjoy every moment. It all seems to go by so fast! As always, feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Semangat!

Next, I want to talk about my next journey! I know in one of my last posts I said that I will be going to Bolivia this summer, but my plans have changed for a number of reasons. Instead, I will going to Russia to study the neuroscience of multilingualism and the Russian language. Anyone who knows me well knows that I LOVE neuroscience, learning new languages, and experiencing other cultures, so I am super excited because I really don't think I could find a program to fit my interests any better! I'm so glad that my school offers such cool opportunities! I leave in about two months and will be spending 6 weeks (mostly) in Saint Petersburg. Just like when I went to Indonesia, I don't yet speak the language, but I have some time to study before I go and will be taking language classes while I'm there this time around.

I'm so excited to see what this summer will bring, and I plan on keeping anyone who is interested in my adventures updated through this blog, Facebook, and Instagram.

Sampai ketemu lagi,

Victoria
