Why did you choose to study abroad and how did you select your program?
I chose to study abroad because I wanted to travel to another country and be able to learn both from class and from experiences at the same time.

 

What did you learn about yourself?
I am very content not doing anything crazy: simply hanging out with friends, going for a walk, sitting outside. But through study abroad, I've noticed that when I step outside of that, I have so much more fun, and I've learned that I should push myself to do new things more often.

 

What is one of your favorite memories from your program?
One of my favorite memories was our day trip to a sheep farm, where I got a chance to hold sheep, and immediately after, we drove to a mountain where we hiked to the top; the views were stunning.

 

What advice do you have for future study abroad students?
Jump in. If there is an opportunity to do something out of the ordinary, do it. I know it's easier to stick to what you're comfortable with, but stepping outside of that is so worth it.
