It's hard to believe that two weeks have already passed since my plane landed in Dubai International Airport, marking the beginning of what is sure to be the most exciting adventure of my life thus far. Between orientation activities and the first week of classes as a student at the American University of Sharjah, I've hardly had time to catch a breath (let alone sit down and put my thoughts into words). So please bear with me if you find the first few posts a bit lengthy. I'll try to make future entries more topic-oriented with pictures and video footage included as often as I can. Whether you're a seasoned jetsetter or an armchair traveler, a study abroad veteran or a wide-eyed student still figuring out your future plans, I hope that through this blog, you'll be able to vicariously experience some of the people and places I encounter during my semester abroad here in the UAE. Perhaps you'll learn a recipe and a few Arabic phrases, or perhaps you'll take away something even more profound. Either way, I hope you enjoy what I have to share. Shukran! Thanks for reading!
