Recapping my Experience
As I wrap up my summer project, I’m reflecting on an experience that has been both transformative and eye-opening. Immersing myself in the local agrarian traditions of Italy has provided invaluable insights into the cultural and practical aspects of farming. Working closely with local farmers and participating in their daily routines has broadened my understandingContinue reading “Recapping my Experience”
Daily Rounds in Rabat!
Ever since I started college, I have slowly become the type of person to stay in. I love staying home in a peaceful environment, enjoying my favorite weekend activities. However, being in Morocco has created a conflict between the desire of staying home or the need to go and explore. Luckily, I have made goodContinue reading “Daily Rounds in Rabat!”
Moroccan Culture
The culture of Morocco is extremely beautiful, and I love the way in which Moroccans are heavily attached to it. Moroccans are really welcoming and kind people. I have been able to learn a lot of their mannerisms, principles, social culture, and religion. Their music is amazing and is a combination of different genres. TheyContinue reading “Moroccan Culture”
Solidarity at REMESS
When thinking of solidarity in the Moroccan community I cannot think of something other than REMESS, the non-profit agency where I am volunteering and their support of the Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE). The Social and Solidarity Economy is an economic system where social wellness and development are prioritized over profit generation. REMESS, the MoroccanContinue reading “Solidarity at REMESS”

My Map: Small but Familiar!
If I were to create a map of the spaces that I habit daily, It would consist mostly of the site of my internship and the library at Rollins College. However there is some variation, for example, I spend my days off with my family at home, or on the lake with my friends. IContinue reading “My Map: Small but Familiar!”
Where I Go
Hi! With being back in my home city of Orlando as compared to Tallahassee, the places I most often frequent have changed. The places I most often go are my job at Winn Dixie, volunteering with Second Harvest, and then the gym (sometimes). Before this summer experience I usually just frequented the FSU campus, goingContinue reading “Where I Go”
A Day in Cusco
One of my favorite things about my experience in Cusco is the flexibility. Ever since I got here, I have been able to experience multiple different programs. My last week I was able to contribute to an Alpaca farm which was an amazing experience. One of my favorite animals there was the baby Vicuña picturedContinue reading “A Day in Cusco”
Conservation Zoos and Aquariums
Hello! Recently, I’ve been focusing on how urban green space and infrastructure impacts local conservation and ecological goals in London, as compared to typical U.S. cities. However, for the past week or so, I’ve been trying to visit more touristy, large-scale conservation projects. Essentially, I’ve gone to the London Sealife Aquarium and the London Zoo,Continue reading “Conservation Zoos and Aquariums”
