ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Maddie and I am currently studying Spanish and Journalism with an emphasis in strategic communication at the University of Missouri. This spring, I was accepted to the Missouri School of Journalism Internship Abroad program in Barcelona, Spain. Starting in January 2023, I will begin my internship at El Nacional, a Catalan newspaper in Barcelona. My role at El Nacional will consist of covering daily life, events and tourism for the English section of the newspaper. I am thrilled to work for an international outlet where I can grow and apply my skills from my dual degree. When I am not working, I will also be attending classes at the University of Barcelona.

I wanted to create this blog to catalog stories and experiences from my time abroad to save them for myself and also to share them with family and friends. I am so grateful for this opportunity to learn in a new environment and immerse myself abroad, and I cannot wait for you to follow along with me!
