Diana F. - Oxford, England - Spring 2012

One Week Passed in Oxford
After only one week, I am having the most amazing experience I've ever had.  We're a very small group this semester, only 17 of us, but the small numbers are making for an amazing group dynamic.  We all get along great, which is disadvantageous only when all 17 of us try to walk into a small pub like the turf, an mightily old place found down a two foot wide alley with hobbit like 6 foot high ceilings. 
The place is absolutely amazing.  Full of charm, bustling with life and music and art and old and new and grandeur.  If you chose Oxford for your study abroad experience, you are in for something as rare as the 530 karat diamond we saw on our field trip to the Tower of London this past Sunday. Prepare yourself for something undeniably unique and unimaginably nourishing to your life.

Sincerely,

Diana F., Current CMRS Student

Hi Diana,
It seems like you had an awesome beginning to your study abroad experience! I will be studying abroad next semester and I was wondering if you have any tips for selecting classes in another country? Also did you end up having culture shock when you got to England or after you got back?
Thanks,
Kinga
