A Look Back

* What did you like most about the program?
  • Countries visited
  • how organized/ accommodating
  • way the program was set up
* What could be improved?
  • transportation throughout the different cities
* What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? that it helps if you don't overpack, between all the metros and trains it's easier if you have less than more, also Europasses are expensive so you don't want to lose the one the director gives you (I know this through experience)!
