Scholarships and Studying Abroad in Ireland with Morgan Kistler

Morgan Kistler at The University of Limerick

“In the back of my mind I was little nervous because I had never traveled by myself before but it ended up being one of the most amazing things that has ever happened to me” — Morgan Kistler 🦘

Morgan Kistler goes to The University of South Dakota, but not this semester. No no, this semester Morgan is at The University of Limerick in Ireland and after talking with her for the podcast it sounds like she is having a blast.

Morgan is doing her program with a company called World Endeavors and she was actually fortunate enough to obtain a scholarship in the process. One stipulation of the scholarship is that she posts Vlogs about her trip on her Facebook page which can be found here. I watched a few of the videos and I think Morgan is doing a great job with them.

Morgan’s quote to live by: “Life, a beautiful mess, it is, we are.” — Unknown
