WhAT was your favorite class while abroad, and why?
I took a class called "The Golden City of Prague," which was essentially an art history class. This was my favorite class because not only was the content interesting, but we also went out to visit sites we learned about in lecture. We went on field trips to museums, churches, synagogues, and other architecturally important buildings. I learned a lot and had a blast at the same time.
HOW did you engage with the local community while abroad?
I went to local restaurants away from touristy areas as well as a couple national events. One of those was Jan Hus Day, where everyone went to the Old Town Square and left a wreath on the statue of Jan Hus. I also went on some of the excursions offered by CEA CAPA to other small towns in the Czech Republic.
