Linda is a senior double majoring in Global Studies and Spanish with a minor in Political Science. She did a study abroad program in Granada, Spain during the summer before her sophomore year and a semester in Buenos Aires, Argentina during the fall of her junior year. The most impactful experience she had abroad was traveling independently to Chile, as it was one of the most empowering endeavors she has undertaken. A piece of advice she would give to people who want to study abroad is to be open to all kinds of experiences, as being in a different country can expose you to different ways of thinking, various lifestyles, and new people!
