This week, I had the pleasure of starting my winter session experience in London, England! This is my first time traveling to Europe and I am extremely excited to spend the month in London to say the least. During the first half of the first week, my class and I had the opportunity to visit Kensington Palace. As soon as we approached the building, I immediately recognized the gardens area because this is where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their royal engagement. After having a look around outside, my class and I spent the morning exploring the palace rooms and considering how public relations plays a role at this royal, historical site. Being able see to the connections of the public relations content we discuss in class in real life at Kensington Palace was an incredible learning experience. All in all, I cannot wait to see what else the city of London has to offer this month!
