"YES!!!! It was honestly one of the most difficult things I've ever done but so incredibly worth it. I got homesick a lot but I'm glad I went. I learned and was exposed to so many realities of life that we don't usually see when we're living our own comfortable lives in the US. Studying abroad gets you out of that comfort zone a..."
