Stephen F. Austin State University (SFA): Traveling - Early Childhood Education, Italy
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
Yes and no. Yes it was worth it to go for the price we paid. No it was sometimes not worth it because we barely got to see the sites and had to suffer through painful tours that we were not interested in.
