Venice for a semester. Wake Forest owns a house there and lived in that house, right on the Grand Canal. I was woken up every morning at 6AM by the gondoliers singing ava maria outside my bedroom window. I had no idea how good I had it. Classes were from Monday at noon until Thurs at noon and then we had the rest of the time to travel. Just amazing and I think every kid should travel abroad for a semester.

Innsbruck, Austria.

Had a Eurail pass and traveled to Rome, Paris and Munich on the weekends.

It was heaven.

Rome. I am going to strongly encourage my DD to do it when she gets to college. It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity and I have never heard anyone regretting their experience. I envy your son…

I did a fellowship in Ukraine in the 00s and can only imagine how things were just a decade before.


We went to Yalta for a break, gojng through Ukraine (can’t even remember which country claimed Yalta at that point). It was during a brief moment when the Ukrainian money could just be printed out on a color printer or copier so the currency was so devalued that everything was basically free. I don’t think that lasted more than a week or so — obviously people stopped taking it PDQ—but that was just one example. Every day was a new example of “how can this possibly be true…..”. I’m still about 80% convinced that my study abroad program was run by drug (and other things) smugglers, with CIA plants as well.

I spent a semester in Chile- loved it! Should have stayed longer to help really bump up the language skills

Oxford one summer and then an archaeology program throughout Greece. Both awesome and huge milestones in my life.

I went to England with everyone else too lazy to do a language, lol.

If I were to do it again I’d do Semester at Sea…

Totally agree!
The beaches, the pintxos bars!
