Ciee Botswana...2 Months Is Not Enough Time!!!

It was incredibly worth my while. I find myself talking about my experiences in Botswana all the time and learned the most about myself while I was there. I gained a lot of independence and self-assurance. Also, being exposed to their public health systems has mad me so much more passionate about the subject.

Botswana; A Once In A Lifetime Experience

I think the most important thing I learn was to be more assertive. Its easy just to let people have their way, but I learned to stand up for myself. To make it in a foreign country away from anyone you know you have to learn to stand up for yourself.

Botswana Summer Community Public Health: This Is Africa (Tia)

The biggest impact this experience had on my was a personal one. I went from being a high-strung, busy student to one that has a more relaxed attitude about life. I was able to put a lot of things into perspective and feel that I have a more balanced life style.

Botswana: Beautiful But Boring

Although I gained some important and applicable experience, it wasn't worth giving up the summer for.
