Marissa lopez was our guide and throughout the tour, she was walking backwards while facing us and telling us stories about the campus, it’s culture and how things changed over the decades. This was my second time to Stanford university but the experience was very different from my first visit.

Memorial Church is one of my favourites inside the campus. It's a beautiful church and last time I had missed going inside the church. During my recent visit, I spent a lot of time inside and intend to do a separate post on Memorial church.

You would notice lot of cyclists roaming around the campus. Students discussing in groups, busy on their laptops, walking around the campus and riding these cycles make the whole environment more interesting. Lively environment of the campus inspires you to think about returning back to school.
