For me, 2015 was full of ups and downs. Last year, I learned a lot about myself, and what I truly value in this world.
In 2016 I realized that change is a good thing, and extremely necessary. If you are stagnant in life, you are not moving forward.
And while I may have had some hardships last year, I also found love. I fell in love with the public relations world and found a career that I know I am meant to do here in New York City thanks to an amazing opportunity, a public relations internship at Lush Cosmetics, a company that I am so passionate about.
I have so many exciting events happening in the future. I am currently writing this in an airport terminal, anxiously waiting to embark on the journey of a lifetime of living in Rome, Italy for the semester.
I am writing this blog to reflect and grow from the mistakes that I may have made, and to remember how far I have come as I go through 2016. I know that everything has led me up to this exciting point in my life. Throughout this study abroad experience, I am looking forward to continue my passion of travel and self-discovery in the magical country of Italy.
