"I never really knew how independent I was until I left for Paris. Paris has shown me that I can be on my own, without being afraid of it. I traveled to Amsterdam on my own and I loved it. As long as I am careful I can do anything I want. I now want to travel to China after I graduate. After all, you will only be at this place at..."

"Absolutely. My future plans already include a trip back next summer to visit my friends and old familiar places and my further future plans could include and job and home there.

I learned that I love being in..."

Andrew V The University of Texas at Austin
"It was amazing. To say it was worthwhile is a complete understatement. I have become so much more appreciative of what America offers while also expanding my horizons and becoming more worldy.
