Unfortunately, the time came to pack up and leave Liverpool. I loved my time spent in this city but the trip must go on and Manchester was waiting for us. After some hotel breakfast we got back onto the bus and made our way to Media City in Manchester. First, we talked to Annabelle from […]

Day 8: Letting it Be
Since we had the morning free to do what we pleased, I decided that it would be a good idea to sleep in a little bit more than I had been on the trip so far, especially after my long night out. After finally rousing myself I went with some friends to a cafe called […]
67 flights and several miles later..
Our final full day of the trip is here. It’s weird cause even after everything we’ve been doing exhaustion still hasn’t stopped me. Most of the group planned on making their way over to Arthur’s Seat today, the huge mountain in Edinburg. However a few of us didn’t want to wake up that early so […]
Buon compleanno David!
Waking up in Scotland was almost picture perfect. The room Dara and I shared looked right out onto the street, buzzing with people and shops. Getting up here was easy, because you truly looked forward to how the day was going to be spent. Today we got to visit two different places for media lectures. […]
Day 7: Wherefore Art Thou, Shakespeare
Fortunately we were only in that maze of a hotel for one night. We checked out of the hotel in the morning and went on a tour of Shakespeare’s birthplace near our hotel. We saw things like the school he attended when he was younger, the church he was buried in, and of course the […]
Day 2: Am I Allowed to Transfer a Second Time?
This morning, we made our way to Regents University. A beautiful campus in London, that you wouldn’t even guess was there. To start off this trip, we met with Jason Makenzie, who gave us an overview of the media landscape in the UK. Jason was a very interesting man and allowed us to have a […]
Day 6: We’ll Never Be Royals
Unfortunately we had to leave London this morning. Although I was sad to go, I was excited to see more of the United Kingdom and also hopeful that the next place we visited had less sirens. I ate some hotel breakfast and got on the bus to Windsor. Today was the day to visit the […]
Day 11: Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow
Thursday, May 16, 2019 Im glad that our last day was free and I’m even more glad I took the day to explore by myself. All I really did was walk around, but it was just so beautiful. Being a Harry Potter nerd, I headed over to Greyfriars Kirkyard. There I was able to see […]
Day 10: Fringe and Obscurities!
Wednesday, May 15, 2019 Today was our last day of media visits! It was very bitter sweet. While I loved getting to listen to people who work in the creative field and I did learn a lot, I was very happy that I didn’t need to dress business casual anymore. I just really hate dress […]
Day11: Our Free day! Ft. Ghooosttts
After a long night with the group, we had all started the day at different points. I ended up starting my day with a late start. Dara, Julia and I slowly got our shit together and decided it was to gorgeous of a day to sit around, so we went for a hike to Arthur’s […]
