London AHA introduced me to more than I imagined! Past Review
By Lindsey L (Journalism: Public Relations, University of Oregon) for
GEO: London -Study Abroad Programs in London
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
I learned that the UK is very different from USA, but still has similarities. I enjoyed London because it was easy to live about the country and learn all about the UK because I was able to see so many sites I had learned about my whole life. It also showed me a lot about Europe in general and how all the other countries work together. I have expanded my horizons and cultural awareness and studying abroad has made me want to explore other parts of the world. I did not expect that & I hope to return and work abroad one day.

A Look Back
| * What do you know now that you wish you knew before going on this program? | Someone who wants to learn every aspect of a culture: the people, politics, history, food, way of living, etc needs to go to London. I didn't expect to learn as much as I did. |
