College Year in Athens
Political Science '22

Alondra Moreno is a political science major in the College, concentrating on comparative politics. As a first-generation college student, Alondra is excited to fulfill her dream of studying abroad. Currently, Alondra is a senior, so she is both sad and happy to be spending her last semester in Greece, where she will be studying humanities (anthropology, religion, etc). At Penn, Alondra has been involved with a number of different organizations on campus like MEChA (Chicano Student Movement of Aztlán) and Mujeres Empoderadas which are geared towards bettering lives of Latin students on campus through community, spirit, and good food. Alondra, when she is not in class, likes exploring new artistic passions like photography, makeup, fashion, and music. She loves Bad Bunny and other Latin trap artists! Alondra is super, duper excited to discover the dance scene in Athens and learn new Greek music. 

During her upcoming semester, she is looking forward to…..

  • Studying up close and personal Greek mythology and architecture!

  • Eating delicious Greek food like Moussaka, Kolokythokeftedes, etc.

  • Going to various festivals and activities in bustling cosmopolitan Athens 

  • Exploring surrounding countries in my free time and learning a new language, Greek!
