What intrigues/excites you about the Slovenia, Croatia, and Bosnia & Herzegovina program?

  • I am excited to experience the history and cultures that we are researching now!

Where do you most look forward to visiting during our program?

  • Piran, Slovenia

What has been the most meaningful idea you’ve discovered or learned about the idea of shifting borders so far?

  • The most impactful idea to me was when we discussed ideology of the regions within the countries, and the community between them all.

What do you hope to either learn yourself or share with others about world literature (based on what you know so far)?

  • I hope to learn more about the history of the writing, and what has influenced the people throughout these areas

For me, the SloCroBoH Abroad is an opportunity to expand my understanding of the world around me, while also adapting my view of myself and where I belong in my community.

How many countries have I visited?

  • None
