"I learnt how to embrace and immerse myself in a new culture. It is very worthwhile."
A student Brandeis University
"I learned that though the world is so much bigger than I thought it was, so many people from all over share the same values as me. Who would have thought that given the space and time I could be friends with people from Spain, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Australia, Germany, Canada, Turkey, and more. I will forever be grateful ..."
A student Brandeis University

A student Brandeis University

"

"Leaving was the worst thing about my entire year. I was able to increase my fluency, take major classes, and develop a life there. I tried surfing, rock climbing, acro yoga, and so much more. In my second semester the only time I spoke English was in phone calls to people back home because I had become so close to my host family..."
