"My study abroad experience was fantastic. I learned so much about myself and the European culture. I was able to travel while studying and see as much of the city as I desired. I have since been back to London two times and can't get enough. I would love to study abroad again in the future. "

"My experience in Tanzania was definitely worthwhile. I went to Tanzania to experience Africa and all of the wildlife I loved growing up; I certainly achieved these goals.
