Weeks 16, 17, & 18 (My Cup Runneth Over… With Churros)

Hi all, I have, at long last, made my return to this long-neglected blog. To be frank, I’ve been in the process of soft-quitting the documentation of my last 3 weeks in England. However, it appears as though I’ve been given a second wind (and a couple of extra minutes before class) because I feel…

Weeks 13, 14, & 15 (Dreams Come True!)

We’re still at it! My pride knows no bounds! Week 13: This week I treated myself to some more time in the theatre district and I ended up stumbling upon a statue of one of my favorite film moments, Daniel Kaluuya in “The Sunken Place”!

Week 7: Some highlights from week 7 included making the trip to Horizon 22, London’s highest…

The world has been made plainly aware of the “beans-on-toast” controversy, but might I introduce you to the British innovation of…

Week 5 (Shoutout To My Ghanaian Peeps)

You know… I had to reflect on something this week. I’m over a month into my time here in London and I’m STILL finding ways to get lost and I’m not sure if I love it anymore! I know what I said last week and I still partly believe it, but part of me is…
