Kourtney Matthews spent the last semester studying at Harlaxton. During her time there, she wrote:
"I'm having a blast exploring Harlaxton. This weekend we played hide-and-go-seek in the state rooms, which was a lot of fun. The Conservatory is beautiful. Although I'm not traveling nearly as much as some of the other students, I'm still exploring quite a bit. Over the long weekend I'm planning on going to Paris independently. Time is flying by. I am taking a ton of pictures, and look forward to showing everyone once I get home!"
