My name is Elizabeth Schofield. I am currently majoring in Marketing at UT and I am beyond excited to be spending this semester in London.
Well, as of today we all officially survived one week in London!
We all have been taking advantage of our new digs! Most of the flats have even come up with names. My flat, Flat Thirteen, decided to be called "The Mine". Due to the fact that we all feel like dwarfs with our low,slanted ceilings and the fact that are flat stays fairly dark... giving the illusion that we are the dwarfs from Snow White working in a mine.
So far, we've gone on many adventure my favorite being going ice skating at the Somerset House. I'm kind of a dork when it come to how much I love all things winter, so when I heard that we were going ice skating I was elated. The Somerset House is a beautiful old government building that dates back to Elizabeth I, basically a beautiful building that could only be made more beautiful with an ice skating rink in the middle of it.
This was one of my first realizations that I was not in Knoxville anymore. One month ago, I was skating on the tiny ice rink and market square. Now, I'm ice skating over 3,000 miles away in a city with more history than I can imagine.
Over the next four months I cannot wait to see what other adventures London has in store!
