Team
GR is written and edited by a small group of people who have lived the international-student experience themselves. Each voice on this site belongs to someone who has navigated a new country, a new language, and a new version of themselves.

Who we are
Author
Founder of GR
GR Stories is a way to keep track of what studying abroad actually looks like. The routines that eventually feel like home, the meals cooked in unfamiliar kitchens, the trips squeezed between semesters. I write about school, food, travel, and the less photogenic parts of building a life somewhere new.
