Prague was everything I could have wanted and more Past Review
By carmen L (history, California State University - Chico) for
USAC Czech Republic: Prague - Politics, Culture, and the Arts
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
It was definitely worthwhile, if you have the opportunity with your parents consent to study abroad you absolutely have to! Plus the friends you make, as corny as this sounds, will last forever as will the most wonderful memories. It's all about what you make it so make sure to live it up.
