My time in Ireland has been nothing but a blast. I have had so much fun with my fellow band members of Marching Mizzou as we explored different places throughout the country.

I arrived back home at 3:30 a.m. and in my current foggy haze (just like the climate of Ireland) I will recount the wonders of my travels. Before boarding the plane, I didn’t have any worry or expectation that Ireland would be much different. In fact, it was very much like I had imagined. The…

I began the month at a school-organized Ceilidh, a traditional Scottish dance that involves large choreographed dances in groups and with partners. At first, it was difficult keeping up with the Scottish dancers,…

Today marks one month of me living in Scotland, the first half spent traveling the U.K. and the second spent settling into my new home at Heriot-Watt. In that little time, I’ve seen the most beautiful hills and flowers, visited the sweetest sheep and cows, and met sweet, hilarious friends in my flat and in…
