Ashley’s Study Abroad Playlist

Are you studying abroad soon and nervous about connecting to your new friends, host family, or host country? Many people have trouble finding similarities in their initial interactions with their host culture and I think I may have your solution. I have travelled abroad several times before and like in America, music taste can be a great starting point in many conversations of awkward uncertainty. So, whether you’re looking to bond with the culture, practice a language through music, or just spice up your playlist, here are a few great songs to add to your library:
