Secondary learning in language and culture was also..."

"I learned about another culture and the biodiversity in other parts of the world. Due to being there, I was able to see hands on new kinds of plants and environmental interactions instead than read about them. I also got to know how Costa Rica has become a leader in environmentalism and how we may be able to bring that back to t..."
Ben K Lefkowitz Muhlenberg College
"This experience has been life-changing, so I would certainly say it was worthwhile. I learned much about myself, in terms of self-reliance, self-compassion, and self-reflection.

"Yes! I learned how to adapt to living in a city I was thrown into. I learned how to travel (how to plan and how to explore cities.)

I learned how to speak Italian (albeit not super well but..."

"SFS and my fellow students have helped me to grow in ways I never thought possible. My semester in the TCI was everything I could have wanted and so much more.
