"It has taught me a lot of Spanish already and allowed me to live in a different area of the world and gain a different point of view. Greatest benefits: language acquisition, cultural understanding, fun experiences, great friends."

"I learned to not be afraid to do things, to travel by myself. I take charge. I'm the fearless girl that I always knew I was, but just never had the chance to break out of my shell until Sydney came along. I will live in either Australia or New Zealand.
