Hi, I'm Emily! I'm currently a junior in college studying Spanish and Education. In preparing to study abroad in Mexico last spring, I noticed there isn't a ton of information out there from people who have studied abroad in Latin America, so when I got back, I started my blog, Emily Abroad, to share my experience.
