On my day off last week myself and another student from my home university traveled to Liverpool. As a Beatles fan this was life changing. Not only is full of Beatles history, but the city itself is covered in history, the architecture is some of the best my eyes have ever had the pleasure of seeing. The city is full of street musicians.street art, vendors, and shops. It was an unbelievable day and I hope to spend many more there while I’m in England

Want to know what some of the people are like that I’m sharing my accommodation with at Edge Hill? Meet Joe and Jacob by watching my video! When I arrived at Edge Hill I was placed in the dorm Eleanor Rathbone and I couldn’t be happier. A good mix of international students as well as students that come from all over England and Europe! Take a look!

One of the first trips that was planned by Edge Hill University was to Conwy. Above is a video of my trip and the beautiful castle there. Enjoy.

Video of my first day

The video above shows my first day in Ormskirk! Please check it out. I’d love to hear feedback. It’s been a blast and it’s a beautiful campus. The town is an old market town and venders still set up tents to sell fresh produce and other small items Thursday’s and Saturdays. More videos to come!

First week

This is the first chance since I arrived on Thursday to post, as we didn’t receive our username’s or passwords for the Edge Hill network. I will be posting very soon a video of my tour of the campus here and of Ormskirk. Tomorrow I will be traveling to Liverpool and will be getting lots of great footage of Beatles stuff! I’ll include my clips from Conwy Castle which we visited in Wales with the Liverpool footage.

I’ve made so many friends of many different backgrounds whether they are English, Irish, Welsh, French, or the other Americans we all have bonded quickly.

New Years Eve Weekend in Chicago

Jonathan Moore — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 22:58:40 +0000

I was lucky enough that a few of my friends from Terre Haute, IN made the journey up to Chicago to ring in the new year with me before I fly out. My flight leaves in two days, I cannot express the emotions I’m feeling right now. Please check out the video I’ve posted along with this blog, it will give anyone who has never been to Chicago an idea of the wonders this great city holds.

Chicago Adventures!

As my flight leaves January 4th from O’Hare International Airport in Chicago, IL, I decided to come a week early to spend it with some of my best friends! Take a look at the video I’ve posted, again I would like to thank Samm for putting up with me for a week and letting me crash at her place. Trying to live it up before I say peace out ‘Merica!

Headed Out.

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and spent with the people you love the most. I wanted to do a short post before I left Terre Haute and headed to Chicago for New Years and my flight to Manchester on the 4th.

Thanks again to everyone from “The Dirty” that helped me make this journey possible. I hope all of your enjoy reading this while I’m abroad.

I’ve never left Terre Haute for an extended period of time before and it will be an adjustment I’m willing to make.

I love all of you in Terre Haute and please keep up to date by reading this!
