Welcome to my blog! My name is Michelle Trinh and I am currently enrolled at the University of California, Santa Barbara. I am majoring in chemistry with a math and science education minor. I am about to embark on a year long study abroad program at Hitotsubashi University in Tokyo, Japan and this blog is dedicated towards documenting my experience there! From food and travel to my new daily life, I will be sure to share all of that here!
I wouldn’t have this opportunity if it wasn’t for the Fund for Education Abroad (FEA) Scholarship! They’re a non-profit organization aiming to provide students who are underrepresented to participate in education abroad programs. Without their support, I would not have been able to make this dream come true.
