I gained a greater understanding of Jordanian culture and about my own culture as well. It was worthwhile. Matthew W - University of Cincinnati View Entire Review

I learned how to be more self-sufficient. I'm a better prepared traveler. I've learned to take setbacks in stride and I am confident I can deal with any problems that come my way. I would most certainly do it again. It was definitely worthwhile, I wish I could've stayed longer. A student - University of Notre Dame View Entire Review
