Past Review Opening My Eyes And Heart To The World
The best way to enjoy your time is to surrender. You aren't going there to be the same person. The land and people will change you for the better if you surrender. I learned how to surrender and love things that I wouldn't naturally be drawn to. - Brigham Young University View Entire Review
Past Review I Was Able To Meet Great People Who Have Done Great Things.
This program was definitely worthwhile. I saw a lot of things that are different from an American culture, but they weren't bad, just different. I learned to appreciate those differences. - Brigham Young University View Entire Review
Past Review Arabs Are The Friendliest People You Will Ever Meet!
I learned more about what I want to do with my life and the work I am interested in pursuing. I was happy to learn that living in Jordan is fairly easy and that the people are great. I am planning to return next summer with a different organization and am looking forward to it. - Brigham Young University View Entire Review
