The experience pushed me out of my comfort zone to meet new people from different cultures. Learnt a lot about independence and management of finances while falling in love with Seoul city as well. Definitely worthwhile! A student - National University of Singapore / NUS View Entire Review
I definitely learnt to be more independent and self-sufficient. I had to do laundry, settle all my meals and plan the itinerary on my own Elizabeth Chin - National University of Singapore / NUS View Entire Review
It was never enough to just listen to stories about how a country and her people and culture are. Being there to experience it yourself allows you to view it through your own lenses.While travelling, I got to see amazing sights that I won’t back home. It was definitely worthwhile.

Ever since I was 12 I have been living and studying overseas, so it wasn't my first time going abroad. However it was my first time going to a country in East Asia, and going by myself. For a few years I have been interested in Korea; it started with the music, progressed into media (tv and film) and then the fashion (which is m...

I think most importantly on my trip, I gained confidence in my language speaking skills. Having to use the taxi and order at restaurants forced me to develop my use of the language and speak more instead of letting my fear get the best of me. Amber Allen - University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee View Entire Review
