“In December 2017, I hopped on a plane and traveled to the other side of the world for the adventure of a lifetime. I found a kind host family, incredible travel, a welcoming college and memories that I will never forget.

This was the experience of a lifetime, and one that I can’t quite put into words. I have grown and accomplished so much!”
