Past Review
By Amanda G (ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE/LETTERS., The College of William and Mary) for
WorldStrides Study Abroad in Paris, France
What did you gain/learn from your experience abroad? Was it worthwhile?
It has been incredible! It has given me a lot of self-confidence, and has shown me that I am very self-reliant. It has given me a different perspective of myself and my country, as well as people from other countries. I've learned to travel, get lost, and explore.
