10 Days in Brazil Past Review
By Tianna S (Business Administration, Management and Operations., St. Cloud State University) for
St. Cloud State University: Traveling - Brazil Business Intersession
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
substantially increased cultural awareness. It helped me understand that the US is not the center of the world and other countries do not view us as such.
