Introduction

This is a blog about the 2008 Study Abroad Trip to Sweden, the Netherlands, and Belgium. For more information about the program, visit http://www.aug.edu/teacher_development/studyabroad.htm . See the menu on the side to start with Day 1.

If you are thinking about participating in the program, I would truly recommend it! It was a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime experience that teaches a lot about differences in culture, as well as the differences in the education systems.

A Belgian Waffle!

These are pictures of the train station! How beautiful!

The school we visited in Belgium. They also requested that students are not in the pictures, so I have pictures of the classrooms and hallways only.

Their student mailbox system! How neat!

A Belgian Chocolate shop



This is where we ate dinner.

Day 10: Leiden, Netherlands

These are pictures at the schools that we visited. At their request, I did not post any pictures with students in them.

A lot of their car dealerships are inside, which is pretty neat, I thought. It saves a lot of space.

This is at Hogeschool Leiden University.
