I am in love with traveling after South Korea! Past Review

By A student (High School) for

Soonchunhyang University: Asan - Asia Studies Program

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?

of course it was worthwhile! i got the opportunity to live in another country for 4 months and learn about an entirely different culture and way of life outside of my own. i am so thankful that i took this opportunity while in college, and it definitely sparked a love for travel that i never knew i had.
