Student Reflection: Highlights from the Virgin Islands

By Amir El Boukfaoui

All these adventures I've had through this study abroad have been truly amazing, from learning about sailing on the "Denis Sullivan" to swimming in heavenly waters packed with marine life. I cannot choose a favorite experience but one of the most memorable moments was this truly stunning flight on the sea plane. It was fun seeing the pilots flick all the switches and hearing the engines roar as we took flight into the sky. My favorite part was the landing. We banked to the right and it felt like I was in a fighter jet.
