I learned so much about myself and how I want to spend my life. I learned that I will not truly be happy unless I go out and experience life and work hard towards what I want to achieve. It was definitely worthwhile. Maddie F - Carroll University View Entire Review

I learned a lot about myself and how much I can actually do on my own. I am a lot more confident and sure of my choices now. I am also a lot more aware of how fortunate I am to be an American on one hand, and how amazing and wonderful foreign cultures can be on the other hand.
