Hello everyone!
My name is Tracey Lindsey and I am a third year from Jeffersonville, Indiana. I am a Strategic Communications major with a Legal Foundations of Society minor. My hobbies include writing, dancing, and listening to music. While my major has nothing to do with architecture, being around my sister, who is an architecture student, and seeing some of her work has peaked my interest in the subject matter. I believe that gaining knowledge of countries and cities outside of your own is extremely important and necessary in any field.
This will be my first real trip abroad and I am excited to explore the city and learn about the culture. Some of the sites in particular that I am looking forward to seeing are St. Paul’s Cathedral and and the Tate Modern. I remember learning about St. Paul’s Cathedral in high school and thought it would interesting to see this structure in person. It is easy to get caught up in the rich history of London but I am excited to see more modern aspects of London in addition to the historical sites. I believe that this class and the trip will help me to gain a greater appreciation for different styles of architecture and the role that architecture can play in shaping a city.
