I have studied abroad and it was one of the best experiences I have had in my life. It was scary at first because I did not know anyone and I was away from home and I had to learn to adjust to a new place. it was basically culture shock for me. But then, I got into the swing of things.
The school I was attending was so very different from what I was used but different can be good and it was good. The food was kinda different. I got really sick a few times but ah well thats life. I met some wonderful people took some very interesting classes. In the end I matured a great deal and just got to know me a little better. I would do it all again and I plan to very soon.
