Experiencing life as a student in a different country will expose you to a new culture, food, history, and possibly a new language. You will improve your ability to adapt to a new environment and further improve your cross-cultural communication skills as you meet new people and form new friendships. The experiences you have will positively influence your future education choices, your career path, and how you interact with others. This is an opportunity not to be missed.
