Benedikt Herold ’18
(Benedikt Herold ‘18 is an International Student from Austria.)

“In Austria, the weather is cooler so it’s not so hot, like Texas. There are more mountains, and the cities are smaller. There’s more nature, and it’s not so dry. The first month here was difficult because you don’t know the family and you’re really careful what you’re doing, but now it’s like a second family and you feel really at home.”

When I'm not writing articles, I am usually found playing soccer, listening to music, and watching my favorite movies over and over. I absolutely love...
