Amerie Goes to Spain
In this episode of Across New Skies, Jessica sits down with her cousin Amerie to revisit her very first experience abroad. At just 14 years old, Amerie left for a study program in Seville, Spain—an adventure that came with challenges no one could have predicted.
Her story weaves together the excitement of independence, the struggles of being far from home, and the resilience it takes to adapt when nothing goes as planned. Now in her 20s, Amerie looks back with fresh perspective on a journey that shaped who she is today.
It’s a conversation about courage, change, and what it means to keep moving forward when the path looks nothing like what you expected.
