July 28, 2018 by Tanner Yuhas Leave a Comment

I have been back in the States now for a few days, and I have really enjoyed reliving the memories of the trip, looking at photos, and telling stories to all my friends and family. I am very happy to say I have been in consistent communication with some of the friends I made in […]

A Thousand Stops at Thousand Islands

July 28, 2018 by Tanner Yuhas Leave a Comment

Written July 22nd Our last leg of the trip was a wonderful closing to a great trip. We visited Seribu Islands, a national park north of Java. The Seribu Islands are known as the Thousand Islands, but really there is a little over 100 islands. We stayed on Palau Pramuka, which most Americans would consider […]

July 26, 2018 by Tanner Yuhas Leave a Comment

Written July 5th It’s right before dinner time after my first full day in Tuanan.

What Is This? Who Are They?

This blog is home to the thoughts and images of Rutgers University students as they travel the world this summer. Each student received a scholarship to experience the sciences beyond their New Jersey borders. In addition to the research and/or coursework, they will keep a journal or blog. Their thoughts are recorded once or twice a week over the duration of their international experience.

For more information about this scholarship, please visit the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences International Programs page at Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey.
