"Being in Brazil was worthwhile; studying at PUC was a waste of time and money. If I had to do it all over again I would go with a public university."

"I definitely became more independent, flexible, and patient. I'm comfortable traveling and handle setbacks on my journeys with relative ease. I have lived in a totally different culture and learned to appreciate and understand different value systems. I genuinely have become more tolerant and see other perspectives more easily "

Dan S Tufts University
"I love Ecuador. I love Quito. I am doing everything in my power to spend time there next year (I am graduating). I love my host family.

Kyle S Tufts University
"Yes. I learned so much about myself and French culture. Being out of my comfort zone and losing my "voice", so to speak, made me find creative ways to communicate.

"The country is beautiful. Diving the reef was amazing. It was also interesting taking International Relations courses from the perspective of a "Middle Power". Also, I learned more about the asian politics given the geographic proximity. Other than that, the experience did not greatly impact my cultural awareness or chang..."

Benjamin K Tufts University
"It was, in the way I learned a lot of new things from it. I don't think there's a single word I can pin my entire experience on, but it was definitely worth going. I probably wouldn't go on the same trip, though, because I would like to expand my roots further than just Hangzhou if I had a second chance at studying abroad at Chi..."
