Michaela's Journey to England

Current Location

Bristol, United Kingdom

My journey to the U.K. began with a 10-hour drive from Atlanta to DC, where I flew out of Dulles International Airport to join my 2025-26 Fulbright cohort in Birmingham, U.K. for our orientation week.

Logbooks

Welcome to a day in the life of a Bristol Grad Student. This past week was my Consolidation week, so I did not have required classes I needed to attend in person. I explored Bath, Cardiff and London.

Journals

Six months into my Fulbright year in the United Kingdom, I reflect on the growth I've experienced overseas and express gratitude for the community that made this journey possible.

Field Notes

In the U.K., Sunday roast is a staple meal that brings people together. This tradition builds community and sheds light on the U.K.'s history and way of life.

Albums

Come with me on a spontaneous adventure to spend my birthday weekend in Paris and London. I ate delicious food, saw my close friend and experienced the best of both worlds for my 26th birthday.
