Ever heard of the saying, “a word is enough for the wise”? Well, this week, our students from different parts of the world have given us many words of advice ranging from travel tips to insightful notes about art. So relax and dive into our pool of wisdom as you read the Best of OU Create, 6/18 – 6/24!
And now for the roundup…
Katherine reassures us that traveling to Spain does not have to be expensive and stressful. In her post, she provides valuable travel tips, some of which includes getting a transportation card for cheaper movement and using or learning the language in order to connect with the people.
Josephine’s post about her trip to Assisi, Italy does more than explaining the history of the church, Basillica de San Francesco. She recounts the wise words of a New Yorker in Italy advising her to avoid tourist-magnet stores for those owned by locals in order to truly experience the culture.
On an artsy note, Kate’s blog post focuses on her trip to the leather market in Florence, Italy and to Uffzi Gallery Museum where she learns about the interesting works of art, both ancient and modern. The picture below captures a part of the museum.
Hailey’s trip to Morocco has proved more impactful than expected. In her post, she reflects on the privilege that Americans enjoy, having access to vast technology. Hailey also talks about her experiences with the Arab bath and other aspects of the Moroccan culture.
Kameron’s post is about audio compression and the unnecessary importance that is placed on it. In their view, the sound quality of the song is secondary to the sincere emotion that we feel when listening to it.
And that’s all for now! Keep writing posts, and stay tuned for the next Best of OU Create roundup!
