I learned a lot about my self and my boundaries, including what I'm comfortable with and how far I can push myself in many respects of life.

This whole trip was amazing and if I had the chance to do it again I would in a heartbeat. I learned how to be more independent and to accept new ideas that may have seemed scary at first. Brennan Jenkins - University of Southern Indiana View Entire Review

My semester at Harlaxton is something I will treasure forever. Time went by so quickly; fleeting, like a shooting star, but also profound and beautiful. I gained a stronger sense of identity and independence. Being uplifted out of the familiarity of home and put into a foreign culture where I knew absolutely no one was an edifyi...
