Adventures in Italy Past Review
By Danielle S (Psychology, University of Northern Iowa) for
University of Northern Iowa: Traveling - Sacred Space Honors Capstone in Italy
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
My experience abroad was definitely worth the time and the money. I have come away with a new conception of my world and my culture. I am now more open minded and I'm willing to try new things. I guess you can say I have the travel bug now.
