Hello all!
My name is Jami Reber and I’m less than a week away from what I’m sure will be the semester of my life. I’m a forensic science major and I just completed my first 3 semesters at the Altoona campus, but will be returning to Penn State at University Park next fall.
Here’s a picture of me showing off my Penn State pride:
I’m originally from Middletown, Delaware and I will be traveling abroad to Barcelona, Spain this semester. I participated in a study abroad program in Costa Rica almost 3 years ago and I had an amazing time, so I’m looking forward to my upcoming journey!
I’m most excited to experience the Spanish culture during my stay in Barcelona. I fell in love with the Costa Rican culture a few years ago, and I think the most amazing part of travelling the world is learning and understanding the different cultures. I cannot express my excitement to meet and get to know my new family abroad! I’m anticipating learning about the deep-rooted Catalan history and culture from a local who lives and experiences it everyday.
Apart from the cultural expectations, I was drawn to Barcelona in particular because of its beautiful architecture, and I have my camera ready to capture the city in all of its beauty!
Ever since my first Spanish class in 6th grade, I have dreamed of travelling to Spain, and my dream is now days away from becoming a reality! Hasta la proxima!
