2009 • England
March 14, 2009 to May 20, 2009
England is, by far, the largest of the four countries in the United Kingdom and even over the course of two-and-a-half months, it was impossible to see everything. That said, while studying in Oxford, I was able to explore that city, and head into London with some regularity. One of the amazing things about Europe is that there is seemingly something historic around every corner and England is no exception to that fact. On our first day in England, we had the opportunity to do a walking tour of Oxford University, one of the oldest universities in the world and also enjoyed a tour of London before branching off and exploring for ourselves. In London, there are a number of incredible historical sites to visit, but the city is also known for its world-class museums. During my time in London, I was able to visit museums like the British Museum, the Imperial War Museum, and others.
