Let's Chew the Fat

#56 What we've learned from studying abroad: confidence, independence, approaching people..


Listen Later

We had an amazing and eventful weekend! The main even was a school run (that Lauren refuses to call anything else than MARATHON) and it was so much fun! Kristyna managed to run those 5 kilometres as Lauren and her sister watched. During the week, we did a lot of sport activities like padel and a mini hike to the (geographical) centre of the Iberian Peninsula, which we had on our list for quite some time haha.

Today, we dove into the positives of what studying abroad has brought us so far in these almost 2 years. And it is quite a list to be honest! We talked about our self-confidence growing, navigating new friendships while maintaining the ones from home and independence – that is a big one. When we got sick for the first time after leaving home, we felt a little scared. It feels uncomfortable not having your parents by your side in case you need them.

And our book club has a little update! More specifically, 'the song of the week' part. We are turning it into a little game, we want you to be able to participate too! Hope you like it:)


With love,
