My Travel Story

Hi Everyone! For those of you who may not know me, my name is Sammi Gamboa and I am a third year at UT studying Corporate Communication and minoring in Spanish. I am half Cuban and my dad was born in Havana before later moving here to the states. Living in the US I never got much of a chance to connect to my Cuban heritage, and even less so once we moved here to Texas. Fortunately I was blessed to have a Spanish teacher here at UT who suggested I look into studying abroad and helped me find the perfect program. I have been accepted to the Cuba in Question Maymester that will be taking place this June. I am so honored and excited for this journey. It will not only be the most exciting
way to gain credit for my spanish minor, but it will hopefully give me the opportunity to learn a bit more about my heritage. If you feel inclined to help that would be amazing, but even a simple sharing of this post and why this trip is important to me would be appreciated. Muchas gracias a todos!
