So lately I’ve been thinking of moving out of the country for a little bit when I graduate. At first it was Berlin, or somewhere else in Germany, but now I’m thinking Scotland. It’d be a nice change. (Plus, from what I understand, they have Irn Bru at McDonalds!) Still, I feel like moving out of the country puts me so far behind on getting a job, since I hope to be a college professor. My area of focus is American Studies, so studying abroad wouldn’t really be possible. I could probably do some work somewhere else in a related field, like media studies or film, but I’m not sure if that’s what I want to do.

spending some time overseas will help with your goal!

I have found that spending time outside of my own country gave me a whole new perspective on it. And surely there are American Studies programs in other countries. It’s worth looking into…

Increasing your overseas experience surely won’t hurt you as a future academic. I recommend you check it out, I’m sure you’ll find it worthwhile :-)
