Raw Testimonial

Studying abroad was a great way to get first-hand experience dealing with culture shock and learning how to adapt to a new place. It was a great time to learn how to be independent, and also make life-long friends. This taught me so much about myself and helped me decided that living and working internationally is a passion that I can develop. Having that experience is invaluable and I highly recommend being open to new and challenging ideas, because you often learn more when you are out of your comfort zone and make more memories that way.
