The Luard Morse Scholarship has emerged as a gateway for endless exploration. During my time abroad, my life has been enriched with learning both inside and outside the classroom. Realms of new possibilities have opened to me as I have traversed the pages of various sources of knowledge and traveled across Europe setting my gaze upon new sights. Every exchange, entailing both personal and professional interactions, have offered breaths of fresh air of insights and inquiries. Each day brings forth new opportunities for my imagination to blossom with fresh intellectual curiosities, prompting me to pose different questions about the past, present, and future. These experiences will forever be with me and shape how I show up in the world.
