I knew that Grinnell had abundant study abroad opportunities, and being able to learn in a very different academic space was very meaningful to me.

Tessa and I have been roommates and soccer teammates since our first year. We also studied off campus in Amsterdam.

My friend and I smile for the camera.

Two of my close Grinnell soccer teammates and I are in Amsterdam together.

My friends and I take a picture together at a park with a river.

We found a new friend and explored the city with her.

The tulips during their full bloom season are simply breathtaking. It was one of my favorite experiences in Amsterdam.

Here I am on a boat on the rivers!

I also traveled around the city on my own!
