Hello Blog, I feel like I’ve been pretty one-note these past 2 blogs, but some of the food here recently has been providing me a significant amount of joy. I have long been a fan of Stone-Davis dining hall (our vegan/vegetarian & kosher dining hall) despite not fitting into any of these groups. They recently introduced a pre-made panini station…

Huge News: Chicken Tinga Has Been Dethroned
Hello Blog, Let’s cut right to the chase. I had a meal prepared by Wellesley Fresh (the dining hall service) this week that has rocked my world. If you read my blogs from 2 years ago, though I doubt many current readers have, you will know that I am a big fan of the chicken tinga in the dining hall.…

Eat the Menu: Wellesley College Edition
Hi Blog, We’re going to do something a little different this week! I am going to show you some of my favorite meals so far from the dining halls on campus (with my sub-par food photography skills). At Wellesley, there are 4 different main dining halls, 2 cafes, and a few student-run co-ops. Most dining halls are either very close…

Hi all, Let’s talk about SOLO travel! It seems fitting given I am abroad and going to be doing quite a bit of traveling in the upcoming months. As someone who had only left the US for the first time this past summer, the idea of traveling abroad to study and also explore on my own was quite daunting to…

One of my favorite things about Geneva is the diversity of people. There are people from all over the world in Geneva. In fact, I do not know many actual Swiss people, everyone seems to have origins somewhere else. Living in Geneva does not feel very Swiss, and in fact, many Swiss people outside of Geneva would not consider it…

swiss cheese, swiss cheeses ?
Switzerland is the land of cheese. And yes, Swiss cheese is not real Swiss cheese. There are apparently many different types of cheeses in Switzerland. So, this week, our program group decided to explore where it’s most famous cheese is made, Gruyères. The town is a small town in the Swiss countryside where the grass is green, cows are plenty…
