met up for the mini-reunion. Now for the travel updates: Katie Chapman, Molly Seeley, and Eliza Hadjis have all traveled south to Argentina for the semester, although they are all in different academic programs while there. According to Eliza’s blog (besosdebelgrano.tumblr.com) and the photos I have seen, it seems all is well in Buenos Aires. Espero que disfruten…meaning for us English speakers, enjoy it! Just a few hours south of Buenos, you’ll find Abbott Matthews studying in Montevideo, Uruguay. It sounds like she had a great school year at Colby, where she is now a member of the track and field team, more specifically throwing discus and hammer. Over the summer, she spent time at the Middlebury’s Spanish Language School in a sevenweek intensive language program. In her own words, “one of the weirder, best things I’ve ever done.” Back to Uruguay, she is already loving it; attending school and holding down an internship at Amnesty International. Abbott is blogging, too: (lavidaclara.wordpress.com) Staying in the Spanish world, Alex Helm reports that he is studying in Spain for the semester. He will start off his Spanish adventure with a few weeks in Salamanca in Northern Spain before heading off to Madrid. Elsewhere in Europe, Elle Czura is spending the semester in Prague, Czech Republic, where she is studying economics and art through Charles University. Just a short flight from Prague, you’ll arrive in London where Kelsey Knutson is studying with Syracuse University. And about 10,000 miles away from Europe, we find Bess Trotter in Sydney, Australia, for the semester. She reports, and gleaning information from her blog (bessabroad.blogspot.com), that she has been planning a load of adventures from visiting the Great Barrier Reef to skydiving to swimming with sharks. She told me that she will see Phil Dujardin in Melbourne. Also studying in Sydney for the semester, Charlie Haley wrote to me about his summer and plans for the upcoming semester. He had a great

summer living in New York City working at an asset management firm and is looking forward to living on the beach, surfing, scuba diving, and traveling in the land down under. Back in Europe, you’ll find me studying in Copenhagen, Denmark, for the semester taking classes through the Danish Institute for Study Abroad. I live with a host family about 40 minutes away from the city center and have to ride a bike each morning to get to school…already, only two weeks in, I’ve skidded into a busy traffic intersection and have fallen off twice. In case you have the urge to read more from me, I have a blog too, (billyhack.tumblr.com). In all seriousness, contact me by email or Facebook me if you are in Europe too so we can get a mini-reunion together in some central city. For those of you in other countries, I hope you get to see other EHS kids, and for those of you in the U.S.A. this semester, work hard, play hard, and appreciate that those around you speak in English. Here’s to a great start to junior year. Be well, ’09.

Coles Lawton began her summer with a trip to Figure Eight Island in June
with Reddin Woltz. She then enjoyed a trip to the Bahamas with her family and Frances Brandley’s family. For the remainder of the summer, Coles was in Charlottesville, taking classes and working, and spent time with Eleanor Blaine, Whitt Clement, Cricket Roberts, and Emmie Burns. Coles is looking forward to her fall semester at U.Va., and cannot wait to reunite with EHS friends for the U.Va.-UNC football game in September. After finishing their first year at Parsons, Danielle Molina and Paige Weber remained in the city for the summer, sharing an apartment with another friend from school. Paige took classes for the summer at Parsons, and Danielle worked for Big Screen Plaza, an outdoor movie venue in the city. Vincent Mariano, Paul Blake, and Cal Bobola paid a visit to Paige and Danielle over Fourth of July Weekend. The girls also enjoyed seeing Alex Hess ’08, Justin Taylor ’09, Kelsey Wall, and Bayly Mears. Lily Merrill spent a month studying abroad in Aix-en-Provence, France. She took classes in Aix and had the opportunity to travel to many neighboring regions, experiencing the wonderful culture of southern France. She returned to New York for the remainder of the summer and worked at Capo Auction and Nicole Miller.
