Hello! My name is Karen Cruz and welcome to my blog! First let me share a tiny bit of my story, I am a student at California State University Dominguez in Carson, CA. I transferred from East Los Angeles College to CSUDH. I am the youngest of 3, and come from an immigrant family that I am proud to say I am part of. I am A year ago, I was blessed to have the opportunity to travel to Europe to participate in ELAC Paris 2018 Study Abroad program for the entire month of July. You can say that I am living my oldest sister’s dream of studying abroad, which is the reason why I went. My oldest sister was a DREAMER growing up and going to college was not easy, but she did it and now she even has her Master’s degree and a great job which enabled her to pay for the main part of the fees for my trip, Thank You Erika! Last June 2018, I took a plane to Paris, France. This was the first time going on a 12-hour flight to another country by myself. We made a stop in Austria and then took a flight to Charles de Gaulle.
