My Travel Story

In the fall of 2019, I will be studying abroad in Irkutsk, Russia. I chose this Siberian city in order to experience Russia beyond the cultural capitals of Moscow and St. Petersburg. I will be living in a homestay, where I will be conducting research on the traditional cuisine of Siberia, and compiling recipes into a cookbook which I hope to publish once I return to the U.S. I have never been as passionate about a project as this one, which will both hone my Russian language skills as well as expand my cultural and culinary knowledge of Russia itself. The impact on my future career this research will have is staggering, and is part of why it is so important to me.
