One of my favorite experiences I’ve had in live was studying abroad. A group of us from SMU decided to do a summer session at Oxford. Not only was it one of the most charming places I had been but it was also one of the most fun summers I have ever had. Everything from the pubs, the architecture, the parks, and restaurants are all perfect. I recommend buying a ticket ahead of time for the Oxford Tube (pick it up at a dozen locations) and take the hour drive to Oxfordshire. Get off around High Street and get lost! It will be a really unforgettable day trip! Just don’t forget to stop for a pint at the Kings Arms!
