Fashion Around the World, the Experience Awaitz

Being in the fashion world, different countries each contribute their own culture to create new styles.  Traveling would be a dream of mine, yet I still have fear of leaving the country and going into the unknown.  As a special guest, I would like to introduce the blog, IUSB Over Seas. A blog that is filled with not only testimonials, but other shared experiences and information about international travel.

Going back to 2013, there are tons of blog posts based on personal experiences and ideas those who have or want to travel blog about.  Though the writing is very professional, there are still some personal touches from those who shared their personal experiences.  Pictures of foreign countries are posted through out the blog that will take your breath away.  The lay out is very simple and easy to navigate.  True to Indiana University spirit, the colors are red and white.  It also has a tool bar that allows for more information about the programs, leaders, and office hours for those who want to take a step forward in the program.

College is the perfect time to take a leap and visit a foreign country.  Financial aid is available to help students, fundraising, and so much more.  Videos are also posted showing the amazing experiences from a different view point, engaging readers and sharing the experiences.  This main purpose of these blogs are not to force people to travel, but to allow people who are curious and afraid, like me, to explore the possibilities.

With all the hate and violence in the world right now, traveling can be scary. Paris being attacked, people being deported, traveling can be a safety concern.  However, the various tools and other websites linked to the blogs allow for those concerns to be heard and answered.  Indiana University makes it a priority that all international programs and study abroad trips are safe, secure, and lead by great leaders.

After reading people that traveled and went to a new place with new people, it makes me want to travel and makes me feel safer about traveling out of the country.  The experiences and little tastes of what others were able to experience, leaves me wanting more. Though the world is not all about fashion, it would be interesting to take a look into other cultures.  No better way to experience other cultures than to travel to the culture itself.
