About

I’m Avery – and this website is my quest to travel and eat my way around the world. I am currently attending the University of Florida.

YES Abroad

In May 2011, I received a YES Abroad scholarship to spend a year in Ghana. From September 2011 until June 2012, this blog was used to document my Ghanaian gap year. For more information about YES, see my YES Abroad Application Process. To read more about my experience in Ghana, see the Ghana section of the website.
