Sisters Abroad: Caitlin Strange and Adair Moody

Seniors Caitlin Strange and Adair Moody spent three weeks in Prague, Berlin and Budapest through a study abroad program sponsored by the College of Business.

Both girls sang the praises of the trip, and of each other! Adair was slightly nervous about leaving her family, but found that traveling with her pledge sister helped to ease some of her worries. The two sisters were inseparable while in Europe, and helped each other step out of their comfort zones.

"This summer I took a leap of faith and went across the pond with 15 people I didn't know and only one, Caitlin, that I did know," Adair said. "I cannot imagine the trip without Caitlin there with me."

The two women took on some of the most history rich cities Europe has to offer. Caitlin sang the praises of Prague, her favorite stop on the trip.

"Of the three cities, Prague was my favorite," Caitlin said. "Prague is over 1,000 years old and is absolutely breathtaking."

Ultimately, Caitlin and Adair were so thankful for their opportunity to study abroad this summer. Both women agree that their trip was a valuable learning experience, and something that added immensely to their college experience.

"A day doesn't go by without me having at least one conversation about my abroad experience," Adair said. "It made me grow as a person."
