Ep. 15: Happy Wednesday! Welcome back to The Abroad Pod, your go-to podcast for all things abroad! I'm your host Nicole and today's episode is actually the season finale for season 2. I wrapped season 1 with 15 episodes and decided to do the same with season 2.  I will be working on a season 3 at some point (I can't imagine putting my mic away for good!!!), but am going to take a nice long break for now to focus on my blog, work, and some fun summer plans! In today's episode I cover some life updates and share a very exciting announcement! This announcement is a new goal I'll be working towards, and is some podcast-exclusive information! I haven't shared this plan on social or my blog yet, but I will soon. I wrap up this episode with a short travel Q&amp;A to answer some of YOUR questions about packing best practices, the world of SEO and digital marketing, and more. Thank you so much to everyone who has tuned in to one of my episodes and has left a review. It means the world! Talk soon! -NicoleMy links: https://www.theabroadblog.com/explore/

The Abroad Series: Studying In Barcelona, Spain

Ep. 3: Happy Wednesday! Today's episode covers all things abroad- as most do. This is The Abroad Pod after all! If you aren't/weren't able to study abroad in college (hello college athletes and future scientists I'm talking to you) (oh, and hello COVID-19 pandemic), this is the episode for you. I curated a list of 10+ travel programs for 12-35 year olds that will allow you to travel internationally with a group on either short-term or long-term stays. These programs are for interning abroad, teaching abroad, working abroad, or just travel abroad in general, and are great alternatives to traditional undergraduate study abroad programs! At the end of the episode I share the story of my 14 hour bus ride from Italy to the Czech Republic in 2017 and how I managed to see all of Prague in only 2 days PLUS pit-stop at Oktoberfest on the way home... You won't want to miss this week's destination segment.Also, thank you to "Learn Spanish Con Salsa" for sponsoring today's episode!Here are the links to the programs mentioned:1.
