Hi, I'm Lily Kalombo and I am currently a student at Memorial University. I am a business student aspiring one day to be an accountant or concentrate in marketing. I enjoy reading and writing, and ever since I was a small kid I always liked writing the things I observed around me, on paper. Since my family's move to Newfoundland, CA I have noticed so many differences living here compared to where I come from, South Africa. Living in two totally different places has made me go through interesting experiences, which in turn has made me analyze things differently and become more open minded. I am glad to share my opinions and these experiences with you.

Study abroad has not only filled the academic requirements I needed – it has changed the way that I look at the wider world and how I see myself in it, and has, in a way, changed the way that I look at NL. [ read more ]

Oh hey there! My name is Yvonne and I am a Canadian, born and raised in Toronto. My major and minor here at MUN are in Religious and Aboriginal studies. Ever since I started university I knew I would be going on an exchange at some point, so I'm terribly excited to be going to Kyung Hee University in Seoul, South Koreain early 2013. I'll be studying Korean language in the first semester and Philosophy in the second. I can't wait to share my new adventures with all of you!.[ read more ]

I thought it would be a cool to enhance the degree and get more exposure to other cultures by travelling. I started thinking that sometime in my future career I might not live in the same demographic. Malaysia sort of picked me. [ read more ]

I lived at residence at MUN, but the residence in the Netherlands was very different. We were from all continents. Everyone would do things together, and I got to meet so many people in such a short time. It was amazing to meet people from all over the world. [ read more ]

I definitely think I reached my aim with widening my perspective and becoming more aware of differences and similarities. I can understand why people do things differently now. I feel like I grew a lot and that this experience opened my eyes a lot. [ read more ]
