Unbeievable Summer in London
If someone had told me that the study abroad experience would change my life before I went to London, I would not believe it. However, living in one of the most diverse cities in the world and being exposed to new people and different culture had completely change my perspective. The 6 weeks I spent in…
Experencing without Expectations or Assumptions
Before attending the study abroad program in London, I tried not to have many expectations because the wrong type of stereotypes can dampen the unique experience I can gain.
