My Story from Global Study: Weekend trips were some of the most memorable experiences during my global study. We made it a point to travel or see something every weekend. With recommendations from locals, we took trains all over the east coast of Australia, staying in hostels, and saw everything we possibly could. Having the opportunity to travel with friends was so fulfilling and a learning experience for all of us as we navigated traveling in a foreign country.
My Advice for Future Students: Getting outside of your comfort zone can be scary and the reason some students choose to not study globally. Going outside of your comfort zone allows you to experience things you never imagined, learn, grow and create unbelievable memories that you'll never forget.
