About IES Abroad Blogs

At IES Abroad, we know study abroad is life-changing. But, don’t just take our word for it! 

Read first-hand accounts of what students experience on our study abroad and internship programs around the world. Our student blogs are unedited, unfiltered, real posts from students just like you.

That's why our IDEA (Initiative to Diversity Education Abroad) Correspondents are here to share how their identities intersect, unfold, and evolve with their lives abroad.
