My semester abroad is officially underway. I値l start with some background that can be referred to later when people are confused about what I知 writing about. Here goes:

I知 finishing my last semester of law school (I go to Boston University) at Leiden University in The Netherlands. I知 on one of several programs offered through BU. The classes are in English and count fully back in Boston. Grades show up on my transcript but don稚 count towards my BU gpa, and I pay the full BU price.

Leiden is a university town roughly between Amsterdam and Rotterdam. It痴 very near The Hague (the capital) and the cheese-famous Gouda.

I知 starting a new category on this site that will house everything I write about Leiden and my experiences here. I bring you: leiden.
