Past Review Summer Down Under

Spending my summer in Sydney, Australia studying abroad was the best decision I have ever made. As cheesy as it sounds, I cannot explain in writing how much this trip, this summer meant to me. It was one of those experiences that I will never forget for so many reasons. The friends you make abroad are unlike any other friendship... Liza S - Trinity University

I truly learned how to budget. Even though I lived with Americans it, was an eye opening experience having such different people (with different backgrounds/ from different parts of the US) interacting under one roof.
