A Look Back

* What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile? It was amazing. I made great friends, and was in an awesome country. I felt safe the whole time. The classes were interesting and very relevant. The staff was friendly. The organized trips were a ton of fun. The social scene was better than any other I've ever experienced.
