Appreciation of architecture, cuisine, history, culture, and magnificent sights Past Review

I am incredibly thankful for my experience studying abroad in Athens. There are endless reasons to appreciate life in the breath-takingly beautiful, unconditionally welcoming, and fundamentally friendly country of Greece. Between my 6 apartment-mates and other Odyssey students who loved exploring as much as I do and all of the incredible monuments, historical sights, and niches of Greek culture within walking distance, every day was a new adventure. While abroad, I made life-lasting friendships with Webster students (other Odyssey students and refugees/immigrants/Greek students), the ever-loving and sensational study abroad coordinator, and Greek people who I met who lived in the area. I also learned an incredible amount about Ancient Greece, Greek culture, traditional Greek cuisine, and so much more about life in Greece over the thousands of years that it has existed due to the positions that I put myself in, from auditing classes and visiting museums to becoming regulars at a bar and forming close friendships with Greek people. I am eternally grateful for this experience and will always take a little bit of Greece with me wherever I go.
