"It was completely worthwhile- I had a wonderful time and it has definitely changed my life- it's great here. If people want something not quite Europe or the North America, but not like much of Latin America, then it's the place to go. A unique country and quite interesting. "

"I gained first-hand insight into the Mexican culture, which I have studied and always admired. I will be studying in South America next summer, and this experience has taught me that I need to have a longer study abroad experience next time. It was difficult to come back to America and re-adjust after such a short period of time..."

"I definitely think that we have much to learn from people abroad in terms of the way they live. Japanese people are very welcoming to Americans, and are definitely curious about our lifestyle. If the occasion calls for it, I would love to return to Japan, whether to visit friends/family, or to work."
