Hello! My name is Victoria Seyoum and I’m a junior in the Politics Department also pursuing a certificate in African Studies. I most recently lived in Brentwood, California, but prior to that I was living in the Middle East and Eastern Africa. The summer of my freshman year I participated in a Global Seminar trip to Italy and Poland and the experience was so amazing that it opened the door to the possibility of spending an entire semester abroad. I decided to study at Cape Town because 1) classes are taught in English and 2) the city is absolutely breathtaking. I’m hoping to expand my knowledge on politics and society in South Africa, and most importantly meet some really cute penguins!
