"Study abroad was unlike anything that I had expected. Initially, I was ready for a year of ethnic food and dancing. However, after arriving in Argentina, I soon found out that there was a lot more to it. I learned so much that year. Not just a language and a culture, but also about myself and my own culture. I learned to appreciate so many things that I took for granted. I learned life lessons and developed my career interests that I will take with me for the rest of my life. My year in Argentina was a very enlightening experience and I wouldn't trade it for anything." |
