One of the best weeks of my life Past Review

By (Environmental Science, Ohio State University - Columbus) - abroad from 03/13/2016 to 03/20/2016 with

The GREEN Program: Peru - Water Resource Management & Sustainable Practices

What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
I gained a wealth of knowledge about the complexities of issues Peru is currently facing. I gained a deeper knowledge of Peruvian history itself, and I gained about 10 great friends. It was most certainly worthwhile.
