February is a time of reflecting on all the people and experiences that we love - the photos tagged with #IESabroad or @iesabroad on Instagram this month show just that. From the sunsets over Ecuador to taking selfies in Spain with friends, these photos remind us why we love study abroad and the people we meet along the way.
Check out our top 10 study abroad Instagram photos from February 2018, and be sure to tag your photos with #IESabroad for a chance to be featured in March!

3. ECUADOR | When you study abroad in the Galápagos Islands, how could you not fall in love with these sea lion pups? @peytonmooremaid, did you name your new friend?
4. FRANCE | @mere_simmons and her friends were feeling like royalty while studying abroad in Paris.
5. ITALY | Burano, Italy, is such a colorful island! @heysteeve, was this one of your favorite places you visited while studying abroad in Milan?

8. NEW ZEALAND | When you study abroad in New Zealand, you could encounter a Boyd's forest dragon just like this one. @tessvandecreek found one that enjoys soaking in the spotlight!
