I was introduced to a new way of life, new music, new food, new everything- and I loved every second of it. I was so homesick and anxious when I arrived, but I grew through m...

100%. I learned how to be completely independent so far away from my normal support system. I was able to fully understand who I am as a person and how to live my best life by doing activities I truly get joy from. I learned all about the Australian laid back lifestyle and got to live next to a beach for nearly half a year. All ... Kristie Tunheim - Gustavus Adolphus College View Entire Review
Australia was the most amazing experience of my life. Living in an apartment in Surfers Paradise was a great place to start "adulating".

I gained so much personal growth. I learned how to be independent and strong, and how much I could accomplish if I set my mind to something! I also learned how amazing other cultures are and how excited I am to see more of the word and travel. Lilli S - Butler University View Entire Review
A whole new appreciation for the culture and people there, as well as countless communication skills and self reliance and confidence. I'd do it again in a heart beat! Hailey Colangeli - Oregon State University View Entire Review
It was definitely worth while. I am more independent than I was before. Abigail W - Middlebury College View Entire Review
I learned more about myself and became more confident as an individual. I also learned to slow down, calm down, and don't stress if something goes wrong, especially if there is nothing you can do about it. I also got to improve my cooking skills (and my patience) in general. A student - University of Puget Sound View Entire Review
It was unbelievably worthwhile. I now understand so much more about the world than I could have every comprehended before. I plan to go back to Australia to live because of the feeling that the country and its people gave me while I was there. Emily B - University of Hartford View Entire Review
