Hello! My name is Nathaniel Lopez, I’m from Laredo, Texas, and I am a digital media innovation sophomore at Texas State University! Studying abroad has been one of my goals for as long as I can remember, and I’m extremely excited and grateful for this opportunity!
Throughout this trip I hope to expand and improve on my media writing and storytelling skills while also growing as a person in general. I’m also looking forward to the relationships and connections that I’ll make from this trip! I’d like to say I’m well traveled in America, but have never traveled outside of the country despite being from a border town, so this is all completely new to me.
I’m looking forward to everything Japan has to offer! From the city life to the tea ceremony, I cannot wait to be fully immersed in Japanese culture! I’m also really interested in Hiroshima. Being able to visit such a historical, devastating place is surreal to me. I hope I’m able to learn a lot from this and have a better understanding of our world’s history.
