Student Blog: The City of Learning and Burning
Incredible India. India is a true sensory and emotional overload for many Semester at Sea students.
We love this blog post from Annamarie, a current voyager from Parsons School of Design, about her experience in Varanasi, India.
I boarded a flight for the Hindu City of Light, Varanasi. This city exceeded anything I had ever dreamed India could be. SpiceJet did not inform me that I would be boarding a plane with time-changing capabilities. I have never been so far away.

Student Blog: Five Days in Ghana
This spring, the MV Explorer docked for five days in Ghana, allowing students to explore the history, nature, and pace of West Africa.
Chelcie, a Kent State University student, spent four days living with a family in Senase, Ghana.
I think the people in Senase thought we had something to share with them, but they were gravely mistaken. It was us that needed to learn from them. WE needed to be clinging to them, begging them to share with us knowledge about contentment and joy in the midst of trial and circumstance.
It was through our small differences that I found commonality…Hope. Hope for the future. Hope for something much greater than this world has to offer. Hope for new beginnings. Hope for change.
